Elderly Man Saved with LifeVac in a Choking Emergency
https://dev-lifevac.pantheonsite.io/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/feat-saved-life-307-copy.jpgI am a NICU RN and used to dealing with emergency situations but am always in the hospital setting where tools are available, and I have a backup. I am still shaken up about it. I attempted back blows and the abdominal thrusts but was unsuccessful. I grabbed the LifeVac and cleared his airway on the first attempt. He is alive and well.
