LifeVac registers its 225th life saved.
The team at LifeVac Europe is extremely proud to share brilliant news, LifeVac has helped save another life in the UK care sector in a choking emergency. An elderly male resident, who is a wheelchair user, was enjoying his food during dinner. He quickly came into difficulty when food became lodged in his airway creating a full airway obstruction.
Nurses acted very quickly delivering BLS choking protocol, which unfortunately failed to dislodge the resident’s airway obstruction. A nurse quickly ran and grabbed their non-invasive airway clearance device, LifeVac, from its wall-mounted box.
Within seconds LifeVac was applied and dislodged the gentleman’s airway obstruction, saving his life.
“Good device, does what it is supposed to do” – Nurse
