After the initial steps in resuscitation, a newborn is albeit with a heart rate less 100. What is the effective action to take in resuscitation
The key to a successful resuscitation is a clear airway

CPR is used by First Aiders when someone has a heart attack and has no pulse, or when it is suspected that this is the case.
lungs- Cardio-PULMONARY Resuscitation
One mechanically compresses the heart of the victim without an effective heartbeat, so that it ejects blood from the heart as it would if the heart were beating properly. Of course, CPR is not as effective as a normal healthy heartbeat. The same applies with breathing. We force air into the unbreathing victim's lungs, which has an effect (ideally) similar but somewhat lesser than normal, healthy breathing.

CPR is CardioPulmonary Resuscitation. Cardio means "heart". Pulmonary means "breathing". Resuscitation means "revival". When performing CPR, one works to revive a person by activating the heart and lungs.
When alcohol is consumed, the heart function is increased and the ability of the heart to contract and move blood is increased
