Description
How does it work?
The LifeVac features a unique valve and suction mechanism specially designed to reduce the risk of pushing the blockage deeper or causing further harm to the casualty. It is one of the key features that distinguishes it from inferior counterfeits.
When the LifeVac device is depressed, the mask forms a seal around the casualty’s mouth and nose, allowing air to be pushed out through the side vents via the one-way valve. This valve ensures that air can exit but cannot re-enter the mask, preventing the obstruction from being forced further down the airway.
How to use a LifeVac
1. Push and twist the mask into the base of your LifeVac unit.
2. Hold the mask firmly in place over their mouth and nose with your less dominant hand, making sure their head is tilted back.
3. Use your dominant hand on the LifeVac handle, depress and then pull upwards with a short, swift tug (while holding the mask firmly in place).
4. Roll the person onto their side, check their mouth to clear any debris, and repeat the process up to five times if the obstruction is not cleared.
