You are performing CPR on an 8 month old infant and an AED arrives. How would you apply the pads on the infant? A

One on the center of the chest and the other on the center of the back

B

One on the upper right chest and the other on the lower left rib cage

C

One on the upper left chest and the other on the lower right rib cage

D

Apply both pads near the center of the infant's chest

If it looks like the pads will touch, put one pad in the center of the baby's chest. Put the other pad on the center of the baby's upper back. You may need to first dry the baby's back. Do not touch the baby while the AED checks the baby's heart rhythm.

It is for u to answer

20 times a minute is usually the average respritory rate of an adult. additionally the patient is breathing on his own, is clearly maintaining his airway, and is intaking a sufficient amount of air. you shouldn't use a bag valve mask, cpap, or other form of positive pressure ventilation, unless the patient has lost control of his airway, and is not breathing (apneic) or has rapid breathing or slow and shallow respirations. this patient would most likely and should be put on an non-rebreather mask or nrb attached to 100% high flow oxygen at 15 l/min. don't use a nasal cannula, as the amount of oxygen it provides is limited with a rate of 6 l/min.
