Repentance is as much a mark of a Christian, as faith is. A very little sin, as the world calls it, is a very great sin to a true Christian.
C.H. Spurgeon

Heimlich Maneuver

Heimlich Maneuver

  • THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER =========================

The Heimlich maneuver is used to rescue people who are choking.

  1. If a choking person cannot breathe, cough, or speak, wrap your arms around his or her waist from behind.
  2. Make a fist with one hand; place it thumb-side against the victim’s stomach, above the navel and below the rib cage.
  3. Grab your fist with your other hand and give a quick upward thrust to dislodge the obstruction.
  4. If this action does not work, get help immediately.

For a young child, placed him on his back. Give six to ten rapid inward and upward thrusts with the heel of your hand on the child’s stomach until the airway is clear.

An infant under one year of age should be placed face down on your arm with his head lower than the rest of his body. Give four steady blows with the heel of your hand between the infant’s shoulder blades. If that fails to dislodge the obstruction, place the infant on his or her back, and with two fingers on the breastbone, give four quick thrusts. Call for help immediately if this does not work.
