Grandmother Saves 2-Year-Old Boy Choking on Bread with LifeVac
LifeVac registers another life saved
A two-year-old little boy from Florida choked on a clump of white bread. The food caused a total blockage of his airway. The little boy was with his grandmother at the time of the choking incident. Choking first aid rescue procedures were performed but failed to dislodge the obstruction. The child was laid across the adult’s lap and LifeVac was administered 1 time. LifeVac successfully dislodged the obstruction opening up the child’s airway.
My mother was the one with my son but she is familiar with LifeVac and she has one at her home as well. He was starting to breathe and cry at the onset of use so she did not need to keep plunging.
