helping a choking infant
lilah is babysitting when baby cole starts choking on something. what is wrong with how lilah has positioned cole to dislodge the object?
lilah should have her arms wrapped around coles waist.
lilah should have cole face down over her leg.
lilah should be using just two fingers to tap on cole.
lilah should have cole lying on the floor.
When helping a choking infant, the correct position is to have the infant face - down over the rescuer's arm or leg. This position helps in dislodging the object more effectively. Wrapping arms around the waist is for the Heimlich maneuver in older children or adults. Using two fingers to tap is part of the procedure but the position is key here. Lying on the floor is not the appropriate initial position for dislodging an object from a choking infant.
