    Cardiopulmonary resuscitation the difference in the process in both adult and baby is explained below

    Explanation:

    The reason for CPR on an infant is because of a respiratory issue that leads to cardiac arrest.

    The main reason for cardiac arrest in an infant is due to suffocation and choking

    In this case, The CPR is the same process but the only difference is we don use the whole hand for chest compression we use two or three fingers in the center of the chest just below nipples. since the bones of infants are flexible and delicate than adults we use fingers for infants.
