Answer to Question 1

Chest compressions are indicated if the neonate's heart rate falls below 60 beats/min despite ad-equate ventilation with 100 O2 for 30 sec.

Identify the lower half of the victim's sternum, in the center of the chest between the nipples, and place the heel of your hand on the sternum with your other hand on top, and lock your el-bows.
