When an infant convulses, the principle of emergency treatment is to maintain the baby’s airway open and to prevent external injury. There is no immediate danger as long as the baby’s complexion is not visibly purple, there is no concern for collision injury, no vomiting occurs and there is intermittent respiratory action. You can assist your baby to lie down on his/her side to facilitate the flow of secretions from the mouth and to remove secretions from the mouth and nose in time to avoid choking, with the head and neck slightly backward to maintain an open airway, and to remove obstacles next to him/her and loosen clothing to create a safe environment. Stay calm. It is difficult to stop a baby’s convulsions with external force, so do not force your fingers or anything into your baby’s mouth, or yell or shake him/her in an attempt to make the convulsions stop. Convulsions of less than five minutes are usually followed by smooth breathing. Continuous prolonged convulsions or weak breathing after convulsions indicate that there may be severe hypoxia, which requires on-the-spot administration of oxygen or artificial mouth-to-mouth respiration, as well as immediate transportation to the hospital, i.e., every second counts, and it is imperative to seek medical attention close to the scene in order to gain timely access to the hospital.
