EVOLUTION LIFEVAC ANTI-CHOKING KIT

Details

Why Have a LifeVac Device on Your Premises

Having a LifeVac on your premises helps protect staff and visitors in the event of a choking emergency, whether caused by food, medication, dental appliances, or everyday items.

Choking remains one of the leading causes of accidental death, particularly among children and people aged over 65. Individuals over 65 are seven times more likely to choke on food than children aged 1-4.

A choking incident can become fatal in under 10 minutes, and irreversible brain damage may occur in as little as 6 minutes due to oxygen deprivation. With the UK ambulance service targeting an 8-minute response time, the risk of severe brain injury rises sharply if oxygen is restricted for this duration.

Key Benefits of This Anti-Choking Device

• No power required – operates without electricity or batteries, making it ready at all times, even during power outages.
• Free replacement programme – after use, you may request a complimentary replacement device via the LifeVac website.

How Does It Work?

LifeVac incorporates two patented discs that allow for interchangeable mask sizes, ensuring an optimal fit for different patients. Its patented one-way valve system prevents air from being forced into the airway during use.

The device’s non-invasive design ensures no tubes enter the mouth or throat, eliminating the risk of pushing the tongue back or driving the obstruction deeper. This also prevents the possibility of tube blockages, which could render the device ineffective if only part of the obstruction has been removed.
