Effective Cough |
Full lung of air. Can cough good. If you can see the object is not in the back of the throat you can try to grab it out. If it is in the back then you don't grab it because it might get farther lodged in the throat. |
|
|
Ineffective Cough |
No air going in or out. Not a full lung of air. Take the choking person and set them on your knee. They will lie on their stomach with their butt above their head making it so that the force of gravity can dislodge the object. You will need to deliver 5 back blows to them in between the shoulder blades with your wrists. You can also do 5 chest thrusts if the back blows don't work. If these don't work you go back to back blows. If this doesn't work you need to call the ambulance immediately. |
