Choking Manikins (also known as Choking Trainers, Choking Relief Trainers or Choking Dummies, sometimes spelled Chocking) are trainers designed to train students to correctly clear a blocked airway either through abdominal thrusts (Heimlich Maneuver) or back blows.

 

Critical Skills

Choking is a leading cause of death in children and in persons over the age of 65. A choking death occurs every two hours, and choking causes over 100,000 visits to the emergency room yearly. Over 100 million Americans have no defense against choking due to factors such as pregnancy, disability, obesity, or being alone. More people die from choking than die in fires, non-fire related carbon monoxide poisoning, drowning, or accidental shootings.

Choking is a life-threatening emergency that requires immediate action. Choking manikins are an essential tool for healthcare professionals and lay-responders to practice the correct techniques for clearing a blocked airway. These manikins simulate the experience of performing the Heimlich maneuver and/or back blows on a choking victim, allowing trainees to perfect their skills in a safe and controlled environment.

Most AHA courses require choking training. BLS courses, ACLS courses, PALS courses, and Heartsaver courses all may require students to learn choking relief skills.
