Video transcript:
In this video you will learn how to relieve choking on an adult and on a child. Use abdominal thrust to relieve chocking in a responsive victim one year of age or older.
Do not use abdominal thrust to relieve choking in infants. If you see someone clutching their throat with their thumb and fingers this is the universal sign for choking. You should ask them are you choking? If they cannot respond or simply nod yes, stand or kneel behind the victim and wrap your arms around the victims waist. Make a fist with one hand, place the thumb side of your fist against the victims abdomen in the mid-line slightly above the navel and well below the breast bone. Grasp your fist with your other hand and press your fist into the victims abdomen with a quick forceful upward thrust.
Repeat thrusts until the object is expelled from the air way or the victim becomes unresponsive. Give each new thrust with a separate, distinct movement to relieve the obstruction.

Why on earth would you put music on a medical instruction video?

[@VictorVonDoom.]

I worked as a lifeguard for years and was taught to first shout for help...Then carry out 5 back slaps. If they don’t work then carry out abdominal thrusts

[@sO_RoNerY]

Toto Phandhamaly Yeah. Space out each thrust. Thrust, then wait a second to thrust again 🤷🏻‍♂️

ok....do NOT do it this way . The most important thing is to save a life.Not to hurt yourself and not be able to assist etc .Stand behind YES . Put left or right foot between victim legs ,This will ensure you are "stood to the side" of the victim. You DO NOT want the victims head to smash back violently into your face etc .
