How do you open air way properly for an infant?

To open an infant's airway, first ensure the child is lying on their back on a firm surface. Gently tilt the head back by placing one hand on the infant's forehead and using the other hand to lift the chin, avoiding excessive extension. This maneuver helps to reposition the tongue and clear the airway for effective breathing. Always monitor for any signs of distress and be prepared to provide rescue breaths or seek emergency assistance if needed.
