How Does the LifeVac Device Work?

Pros and Cons of LifeVac:

LifeVac has been found to be safe and effective after undergoing trials and third-party evaluations. In the incidences reported the majority were not required to attend hospital, although 85.1% of victims were reviewed by a health care professional within the care home. In the incidences explored in depth no resident was reported to have residual aspiration pneumonia. Although in two incidences mouth trauma was identified, neither could be linked directly to the use of the device and staff felt this trauma to be minor in comparison to choking itself or other resuscitation interventions that might have been utilized. In general staff felt that the DeChoker was easy to use and well designed, with the non-return valve and the clear chamber particularly useful features. They felt that the figure for accident and emergency attendance, fatality or post incident sequela might have been significantly higher if the DeChoker had not been deployed. According to research from NSC’s Injury Facts, choking is the fourth leading cause of death in the US. It can happen to anyone and often occurs when something is lodged in the throat. Place the device over your nose and mouth: Placing the device over your nose and mouth will create the perfect seal required for LifeVac to function properly.

The impact and influence of professional bodies and guidance on innovation evaluation and adoption should also be noted here. The expert advisory group had representation from the outset from a range of professions.

So as I was doing it, I did manage to free some stuff from out of her throat”To use DeChoker properly and efficiently, you would need to tilt the patient’s head in such a way that you can access their airway. After that has been done, insert the tube in their throat in a way that the mask covers their mouth and nose. It is a complementary treatment that requires you to follow specific strict guidelines before it can be administered. Because of the regulations, it cannot, for example, replace the Heimlich maneuver. It can only enhance it. Juliano M, Domingo R, Mooney MS, Trupiano A.
