First Aid Tip:

Airways obstruction

Ask the victim if he/she can breathe. If cannot, deliver four sharp blows between the shoulder blades with the heel of your hand. Stand behind victim and wrap your arms around his waist. Grasp one first with your other hand and place the thumb side of the first against the victim’s stomach. Use four quick thrust to expel any matter from the breathing passage.
