After giving back blows during the Infant Heimlich maneuver, the correct action is to flip the child to their back and give chest compressions. This step is crucial because if the back blows did not dislodge the object causing the obstruction, transitioning to chest compressions can help generate sufficient pressure in the chest cavity to force the object out of the infant's airway.

In an emergency situation involving an infant, it’s important to alternate between back blows and chest thrusts effectively. Chest compressions can also help maintain blood circulation and provide oxygenation during a respiratory emergency. The combination of these techniques is designed to maximize the chances of dislodging a blockage and restoring normal breathing quickly.

Each of the other options has its own applicability but is not the immediate next step following back blows in the Heimlich maneuver for infants. Checking for breathing or administering rescue breaths might be necessary after managing the airway, and calling for emergency help is always a good idea, but ensuring that a potential obstruction is relieved takes priority in this scenario.
