Answer 1

Rescue breathing in an infant with pulse but not breathing or breathing abnormally involves giving gentle breaths and monitoring the rise of the chest.

Step-by-step explanation:

When an infant has a pulse but is either not breathing or breathing abnormally, rescue breathing should be performed.

To perform rescue breathing on an infant:

1. Place the infant on a firm surface with their head tilted back.
2. Seal your mouth over the infant's mouth and nose.
3. Give two gentle breaths, each lasting about one second. Watch for the infant's chest to rise with each breath.
4. Continue giving breaths at a rate of about 12 to 20 breaths per minute.
