LifeVac, anti-choking device for airway clearance, Home Kit (damaged box)
Sometimes the journey to its destination can be a bit rougher than we would like. A few boxes have gone through a bumpier ride, but the product inside is intact and sealed.
Because we know that what truly matters is the content, we decided to offer them at a discounted price. They’re eagerly waiting to find a new home!
Condition: the outer packaging shows small signs of impact, but the product is in perfect condition, and the box remains sealed.
LifeVac is a manual, non-invasive, single-use device designed to intervene in cases of airway obstruction when standard clearing maneuvers have failed. The negative pressure generated by the LifeVac suction is up to three times stronger than the most effective abdominal thrusts recorded. The suction duration is extremely short, making LifeVac a safe and effective device.
LifeVac can be used on children weighing at least 10 kg, using the pediatric mask. However, there have been cases where the device was successfully used even on infants as young as 3 weeks old. The adult mask is intended for adults and elderly individuals. Both masks – pediatric and adult – are included in every Home Kit and Travel Kit.
The LifeVac device is equipped with an innovative one-way valve that prevents air from entering the airway during the push motion, thus preventing accidental pushing of the obstructing object deeper into the trachea.
All you need to do is place the mask over the casualty’s mouth and nose, push to create suction, and then pull to remove the obstruction. Thanks to the very short suction duration, LifeVac is safe and effective to use.
