Why alternate on an infant during CPR?

There are a few reasons why alternating on an infant during CPR is important.

* It helps to ensure that the infant receives adequate chest compressions. When you alternate, you are using both of your hands to compress the infant's chest, which helps to generate more force and circulate more blood.

* It helps to reduce the risk of injury to the infant's chest. When you press down on the infant's chest, you are putting pressure on their ribs and heart. Alternating helps to distribute the pressure evenly and reduce the risk of injury.

* It allows the infant's chest to recoil. When you release pressure on the infant's chest, it allows their lungs to expand and take in air. Alternating helps to ensure that the infant is able to breathe effectively.

For these reasons, it is important to alternate on an infant during CPR. By doing so, you can help to save their life.
