TLDRThis video provides essential steps for helping a child who is choking. Choking occurs when an object blocks the airway, preventing the child from breathing, coughing, or speaking. The first step is to remain calm and tilt the child forward, then administer back blows using the heel of your hand to create pressure and vibration in the airway. If the object does not dislodge after about five back blows, you can perform abdominal thrusts by placing your fist under the child's ribs and thrusting in and up to expel the object. These techniques are crucial for ensuring the child's safety in a choking emergency.

    The video explains how to assist a choking child, which occurs when an object blocks their airway. Choking can happen during eating or play. Signs of choking include inability to breathe, cough, cry, or speak. The first step is to remain calm and tilt the child forward, then administer back blows using the heel of your hand to create vibrations that may dislodge the object. If five back blows are ineffective, the next step is to perform abdominal thrusts by making a fist and placing it under the child's ribs, then executing a quick in-and-up motion to expel the object from the airway.

    Today I'm going to show you how to help a child who is choking. What we mean by
  • 00:00:04
    choking is when something has slipped down the back of their throat and it is
  • 00:00:09
    blocking off their airway, the tube that they breathe through. So it could be when
  • 00:00:13
    they are eating, like chopped up carrot or apples, or it could be that they've
  • 00:00:19
    been playing and they've put toys or little things in their mouth that they
  • 00:00:23
    shouldn't have, just because they're exploring. If that happens and it slips
  • 00:00:27
    back and it blocks off their airway then they will not be able to breathe, they
  • 00:00:32
    won't be able to cough or cry and they won't be able to speak, so it will be
  • 00:00:37
    very easy for you to tell that you need to help your child. So I'm going to show
  • 00:00:41
    you now what you need to do. The first thing you need to do is try to stay calm
  • 00:00:47
    and tilt your child forwards, then we're going to give them what we call back
  • 00:00:53
    blows. So with the heel of my hand I'm going to give them a really quite firm
  • 00:00:58
    blow to their back. If it hasn't come out then you just need to keep going. What
  • 00:01:05
    the back blows do is by striking them firmly on their back it can cause
  • 00:01:10
    vibration and some pressure in their airway which will hopefully lift the
  • 00:01:16
    object up and push it out. So if you've done around five back blows and the
  • 00:01:22
    object has still not come out then there is something else that you can try and
  • 00:01:26
    that's called an abdominal thrust. So this time you would lean them forward
  • 00:01:32
    with you behind them and you'd get your hand into a fist and put your fist
  • 00:01:38
    underneath their ribs on the soft part of their tummy above their belly button
  • 00:01:42
    and with your other hand just hold on to it, hold on to your fist and then what
  • 00:01:49
    you would do is a very quick, fast in-and-up movement. So I'll show you without
  • 00:01:56
    the doll, it's a very fast in-and-up. What that does is it squeezes the air out of
  • 00:02:03
    their lungs which would hopefully push the object up and out of their airway
