Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Is it suitable for children to perform chest compressions?Doctor's answer:
When performing chest compressions, use one palm or the middle three fingers to press on the center of the child's sternum (the midpoint of the line connecting the nipples), pressing vertically downward with the arm perpendicular to the ground. The depth of compression should be 2 to 3 centimeters. When rescuing infants, the compression rate should be 100 to 120 compressions per minute. The child's sleeping position should be changed promptly to promote the development of the head and chest. Do not let the child sleep on their stomach. Wishing your child a healthy and happy growth.
