Crash Dummies/unconscious choking

Unconscious choking, Compare and Contrast

In the following video, all steps of the process are identical to what we have been practicing except for one misstep. In the video, the airway of the victim is not being checked for expelled obstruction after compressions are given. Instead, series of 2 breathes and 30 compressions are given until an object visibly "pops out" of the mouth or the victim vomits at which point the victim is put into the safety position and then reassessed for signs of life.
