September 19, 2013. 1  It's fitting, in some way, that Vladimir Guerrero and Todd Helton announced their retirements from Major League Baseball on the same day.
CPR FOR INFANTS. According to generally accepted guidelines, Infant CPR is administered to any victim under the age of 12 months. Infants, just as children, have a much better chance of survival if CPR is performed immediately. If you are alone with the infant, do not dial 9-1-1 until after you have made an attempt to resuscitate the victim. Check the infant for responsiveness by patting his feet and gently tapping his chest or shoulders.
Follow these step-by-step instructions on how to give a baby CPR if your little one chokes or is unconscious. Take a class. Even if you can follow written directions, it's even better to take a class taught by an authorized American Heart Association instructor to get trained in infant and child CPR.
