MODEL RELEASED. Heimlich manoeuvre. Choking girl having the Heimlich manoeuvre performed on her. This procedure is used to dislodge an obstruction in the casualty's throat. The first aider (rear) makes a fist,and places it below the victim's breastbone (sternum). She then grasps the fist with her other hand,and makes a quick hard thrust upwards and inwards. This abdominal thrust will force air out of the lungs,hopefully expelling the blockage from the throat. If this fails,emergency medical help should be sought | |
