If the victim becomes unresponsive, call for emergency help and begin CPR while checking the mouth for the object after each set of compressions. Always prioritize calling for emergency assistance if the situation allows.

Why do you think there are different methods of responding to adult and infant choking victims?
The proper first-aid responce for an adult choking victim is to encourage coughing, but if the airway is completely blocked, Heimlich maneuver until the individual is no longer conscious or the airway is cleared. If the individual looses conciousness, perform CPR with the added step of checking in the throat to see if the object could be removed, and giving two rescue breaths unless the first does not go into the lungs, in which case only give the one. For infants, first aid for choking is to hold the child while resting the head in your hand, hold angled, head-down and give five firm blows between the shoulder blades. Turn over, with index and middle finger perform chest compressions. The difference for these is because an infant is much smaller and more fragile than most adults, and so extra care must be taken to not cause additional physical damage to the infant. Adults are typically able to easily withstand the force of another giving chest compressions. Also, the Heimlich maneuver is not advised or very possible on infants due to their size.
