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

LifeVac is thrilled to share news of another life saved

A 62-year-old woman with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) began choking on a pretzel causing a full airway obstruction. Due to her medical condition, she is not able to move on her own making it impossible to perform the abdominal thrusts. LifeVac was used by her husband 2 times and completely dislodged the obstruction from her airway right into the one-way valve unit. Her breathing was restored immediately.

Husbands Comment:

“This is a great thing to have” “We’ve had tremendous success as my wife chokes often, it is critical for us to have this product on hand!”
