There Is A Difference Between Infant CPR, CPR On Children And Adult CPR
The same principles apply whether giving adults, children or infant Cpr. However, because of the obvious size difference, Infant Cpr Classes should be taken if there is a reason for you to have certification from Infant Cpr Classes. Books could certainly teach you the methods but hands on experience in a classroom setting is strongly suggested.
Infant Cpr Classes will have the necessary equipment to train you. Life sized dummies of infants are available for the course in which one can practice the techniques. Certified trainers will teach the course and certification is given once the class is completed. Class time is divided into two days. The first day training will be given on birth to one year of age. The second class will give you training from ages one year to age 12. Each class will last four to five hours and each session is held on different days. An instructor will give you help on how to position a child to receive Cpr and watch you preform this mock resuscitation until you are comfortable with the process and the instructor feels you have a good grasp of the technique.
Where can you find Infant Cpr Classes? Hospitals hold classes and also the American Red Cross holds classes. Check with the American Heart Associates for further locations that you can enroll for the next new class that begins.

If you do not need a certification and want to learn this on your own, I will give you information to purchase the manikins. From my research, the cost involved for the infant dummies are between the range of $89.00 to $103.00. MCRMedical.com is the information. The two units are Prestan # PP-IM-100M and # PP-IM-100. The manikin has its own carry case and comes will full instructions. This also includes infant lung bags a quantity of 10. There is a rate monitor which will allow both the student and the instructor to get immediate feedback as to how effective there ministrations are. If you are purchasing to teach a class, then multiple manikins can be purchased between $340.00 to $395.00. Four dummies are included in this cost. Prestan # PP-IM-400M and Prestan # PP-IM-400. Again, for certification you need to enroll in an accredited classroom setting and once there, have access to the proper equipment and training.
