To remove an object from an unresponsive infant's mouth during CPR for choking, you should:

• A. Use a suction device
• B. Sweep it out with your finger
• C. Remove with tweezers
• D. Return the object and continue CPR

Answer: (B)

When an infant is unresponsive and choking, clearing the airway while you perform CPR is the priority. If you can see a foreign object in the mouth and it is within reach, gently sweep it out with your finger to remove the obstruction and allow effective ventilation. This direct removal is safer and faster than trying to suction or using tools when the object is visible, and it helps restore airflow without delaying compressions. Using suction or tweezers can injure the mouth or push the object deeper, and returning the object to the airway would worsen the blockage, so those options aren’t appropriate. If the object isn’t visible or reachable, continue CPR and seek help.
