Recovery position for infants

The recovery position is assumed once circulation and respiration has been restored after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This position promotes circulation and adequate respiration. However, the recovery position varies between adults and infants.

For babies less than 12 months old, cradle him or her with head tilted downwards slightly to prevent choking on vomit and prevent the tongue from falling back and blocking the airway. Monitor the infant’s vital signs including temperature, pulse, and respiration.
