BLS CPR & AED Classes with Infant CPR in Huntsville

Having the knowledge and skill to perform CPR gives you the power to react in an emergency. In your infant CPR training, you will most importantly learn how to handle an infant during a crisis confidently.

Infants and young children typically need CPR to address a breathing issue or cardiac arrest induced by breathing issues. Here are a few reasons why it’s so important to know infant-specific CPR:

• Respiratory failure or obstruction in the airway is the most common cause of cardiac arrest in younger children
• 2018 saw over 21,000 infants die, with SIDS and suffocation being the 4th and 5th leading causes.
• Every year over 7,000 children suffer from cardiac arrest.
• Circumstances requiring infant CPR attention include near-drowning, severe asthma, smoke inhalation, head trauma, electrical shock, and poisoning.
• As a note, you should only perform CPR on infants who are not breathing independently and are unconscious/unresponsive.

Whether you’re with an infant, child, or adult, our infant CPR trainers ensure that you are qualified to use BLS, CPR, and AED skills confidently.
