It was reported to us on August 16th that a 13-year-old boy choked on a piece of hard candy while at an amusement park in Idaho. The candy was completely blocking his airway. His parents attempted BLS protocol but it did not help in dislodging the candy. LifeVac was then used and on the first attempt successfully removed the obstruction.
“LifeVac 1000% saved his life. I keep one in my house, and one in my vehicle that I take with me when away from the car, such as this at an amusement park. If I could have one in all cars, our boat etc I would.”
