Does anyone have any experience with the LifeVac amd if so does it work? Any experience with anything similar, any piece of equipment to keep in your med bag for choking and drowning victims?

I bought one to have at home, one for my parents and one for my sister.

I have one but haven’t had to use it. I’ve seen videos of them working as advertised.

I have one, or something similar.  But never had to use it.

Yep, we obtained a bunch from lifevac, placed into each squads med bag, donated couple to our ambulance crews, and also put them in the school nurses office and lunchroom, as that is the most likely place a kid will choke.

The videos show them working. I tell the guys,  if you have a choking victim that is too large to move or dofficult to perform the heimlich, then that is where this tool may be helpful. Never had to use it yet.

Seems like a legit tool.  Kinda bulky but would be good to have.
