3d. One-Rescuer BLS in Infants, Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)

Chapter 3, Part 4 continues with the coverage of BLS. The information provided is specific to one-rescuer situations involving infants. There are a number of appropriate actions to take depending on the state of the infant, which is explained in detail during the lesson. "If you are alone with an infant, shake their shoulders and talk loudly to them to determine if they are responsive. Then, assess their breathing. If the infant does not respond and is not breathing (or is only gasping for air), then yell for help. If someone responds, send them to call 911 and get an AED (if you are not in a health care facility), or activate emergency response system and get a defibrillator (if you are in a health care facility). Feel for the infant’s brachial pulse for no more than 10 seconds. If you cannot feel a pulse, or if you are unsure that you feel a pulse, begin CPR by doing 30 compressions followed by two breaths. If you can feel a pulse but the pulse rate is less than 60 beats per minute, begin CPR. This rate is too slow for a child. To perform CPR on an infant, make sure the infant is face up on a hard surface. Using two fingers, perform chest compressions in the center of the infant’s chest. Be sure not to press on the end of the sternum as this can cause injury to the infant. (Compression depth should be 1.5 inches, that is 4 cm, and the compression rate should be at least 100 to 120 per minute.) After doing CPR for about two minutes, which is usually five cycles of 30 compressions and two breaths, if help has not arrived, activate emergency response system while staying with the infant. The AHA emphasizes to use speaker-equipped cell phones that are available everywhere now. Get an AED or defibrillator if you know where one is. Use the AED or the defibrillator while continuing CPR until more help arrives or until infant’s condition normalizes.
