9-Year-Old Saved with LifeVac in a Choking Emergency

LifeVac are delighted to share news of another life saved

 

It was reported to us that a 9-year-old boy choked on Jolly Rancher causing a full airway obstruction. The child knew what to do and came to his mother using the universal sign for choking. His mother immediately performed the abdominal thrusts but unfortunately, they failed. LifeVac was then utilized two times and successfully cleared his airway.

“The candy was dislodged due to the LifeVac. I tried everything else and couldn’t get it out. “My son is alive and safe because of your product.”
