Infants usually need CPR because of cardiac arrest due to breathing problems. Here are a few statistical reasons why infant-specific CPR is so important:

• Every year, 7,000+ children suffer from cardiac arrest.
• Respiratory failure or obstruction in the airway is the most common cause of cardiac arrest.
• In 2018, over 21,000 infants died, with SIDS and suffocation being the 4th and 5th leading causes.
• The following issues are where CPR is also needed: smoke inhalation, head trauma, near-drowning, electrical shock, and poisoning.

What is CPR?

CPR or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is the medical technique of combining chest compressions and rescue breathing to revive someone who has experienced cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke, or drowning. CPR keeps blood moving through the body to vital organs until further medical help arrives. Note: Only perform CPR on infants who are not breathing independently or are unconscious/unresponsive.
