Answer:

The five-and-five first aid action recommended by the red cross

Explanation:

When an infant is choking and becomes unresponsive, the five-and-five approach is recommended as a first aid treatment to dislodge the material blocking the airway.

<em>The five-and-five action involves alternation between giving the subject five back blows and five abdominal thrusts until the the choking material is dislodged or the subject becomes unconscious.</em>

If the infant becomes unconscious, CPR should be performed and further help should be sought.
