BLS CPR & AED Classes with Infant CPR in Boston

While adults can require CPR for various situations, infants and young children typically require CPR to address a breathing issue or cardiac arrest caused by breathing issues.

We hope you never need to use your trainfing, but here are some stats on why you should be trained in infant CPR:

• In 2018, over 21,000 infants died, with Sudden Infant Death (SIDS) and suffocation being the 4th and 5th leading causes, respectively.
• 7,000+ children suffer from cardiac arrest each year.
• The most common cause of cardiac arrest in young children is respiratory failure or obstruction in the airway.
• Other common situations that require infant CPR include head trauma, electrical shock, poisoning, near drowning, severe asthma, or smoke inhalation.

In your training, you will learn how to —

1. Handle an infant properly during a crisis.
2. Give immediate relief to a Baby choking.
3. Prevent, spot, and respond to infant breathing and cardiac emergencies.

Having this training gives you the power to react with lifesaving knowledge. Our instructors ensure that you can confidently use BLS, CPR, and AED machine skills in any circumstance.

What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is a critical process that includes rescue breathing and surface chest compressions to —

1. Provide oxygen-rich blood flow to vital organs, including the brain.
2. Restore breathing until first responders arrive and give more life support.
3. Revive breathing and heartbeat after cardiac arrest, heart attack, stroke, or drowning.

Note: Only perform CPR on infants who are unconscious, unresponsive, or are not breathing independently.

What to Expect in Your CPR Classes
