Choking — Heimlich Maneuver

 

  1. Stand behind the choking person. Wrap your arms around the waist, and tip the person forward slightly.

     

  2. Place a fist above the person's navel. Grasp your fist with your other hand and thrust inward and upward, as if you were trying to lift the person off the ground. Repeat until the food or blockage is dislodged.
