www.ProCPR.org If a child is choking and conscious, signs include looking panicked, blue color around the lips, and the inability to talk, cough, or breathe. The child may do the universal choking sign with hands around their throat. Ask if the child needs help. Get to the level of the child by kneeling or sitting, and raise their elbows. Place one hand with thumb tucked in against the abdomen, above the bellybutton, and grab your fist with the other hand. Perform abdominal thrusts until the object is clear or the child becomes unconscious. Video created by ProTrainings.

  • The reason why I'm watching this (as an 11-year-old child) is because 2 minutes ago my younger brother choked, and I panicked and I didn't know what to do. I was in tears because I thought he was going to die. I'm still in shock that my beautiful younger brother almost died. Trust me, you think u really hate your siblings and think they're the worst, but once you come to a near-death experience you realise how much you love and care for them. (my 13-year-old sister was babysitting)

  • I have had to intervene with choking once and it is a scary situation for all involved. I was at a barbecue with some friends and one of them began grabbing at their throat. I asked if they was OK and got no response. Asked if they could cough and they couldn't. Thankfully I only needed a few hard hits between the shoulder blades with the butt of my hand. They began coughing and spat out the beef they were chocking on. It was all because I remembered basic first aid from when I was at school and some local paramedics did a presentation. Every job I have had since I always ask to be put forward for first aid training and keep up to date on new ways to do things. Thankfully since that first incident I have only ever had to help with some minor bleeding and a broken wrist but I always want to be prepared just in case

    • Maybe that's why they developed the universal sign for choking! a simple head shake wasn't going to do it. Silence gets you nowhere. and it's funny I actually choked on a grape or several grapes at the exact same age as the girl in the video it looks like anyway and it was horrifying and you do automatically put your hands around your throat it's just natural and there's none of this looking around starting to get panicked stuff the adrenaline and panic hit the roof in 5 seconds and it was just sheer insane panic when I couldn't breathe at all and I flew down a flight of stairs and found a parent the end in record time I can't I don't even know how fast it was just insane and my Dad tried to CPR on the Heimlich on me for a while and that wasn't working but my aunt came out and with one thrust it dislodged. Don't ever put grapes in your mouth. Uh...i meanI mean don't let children put many of them in their mouth

Then I told him, "Here drink from your juice". What was surprising was that my mom and her daughter in law (not the kid's mom) just kept going on with their conversation like nothing was happening. Fortunately, I rescued my nephew!

    • sonerscorner two years old is kind of on the cusp between this method or laying them lengthwise down your leg and giving back blows (the infant method). My daughter is really small for her age and I hadn’t familiarized myself with the methods for older children so I performed the back blow method. She got to the point where she was blue in the face but eventually it dislodged the liquid that was holding her epiglottis down (it was a syrup consistency liquid vitamin). Anyway after that I went and got recertification for pediatric cpr because no matter how many times you watch these videos it’s so hard to recall the information when you’re in the middle of a crisis!
