Chapter 10: Choking: Adult and Child

When someone is choking, every second counts. A common sign is when the person grabs their neck with one or both hands—the universal choking gesture. If you suspect a choking emergency, follow these steps:

Ask, “Are you choking?” If the person nods or can’t speak or breathe, tell them you’re trained in CPR and are going to help.
Stand or kneel behind the person, depending on their height.
Make a fist with one hand and place it just above their belly button.
Grab your fist with your other hand.
Give quick, upward abdominal thrusts.
Continue thrusts until the object is expelled or the person can breathe or cough forcefully.
If the person goes unconscious, start Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) right away.
If the person is pregnant or too large to reach around, switch to chest thrusts.

This training is part of your Online CPR/AED Certification Course and prepares you to respond quickly and effectively in choking emergencies.
