    This document provides information on foreign body airway obstruction (FBAO), including causes, types, and treatment methods. It outlines how to perform the Heimlich maneuver on adults, children, and infants to relieve FBAO. Key points covered include identifying anatomical and mechanical causes of obstruction, classifying obstructions as mild or severe based on symptoms, and demonstrating proper techniques for abdominal thrusts and back blows to dislodge obstructions and restore breathing in conscious and unconscious victims of all ages.

    KNOWLEDGE OBJECTIVES:

    1. Identify the causes, types, and


    classification of obstruction.
    2. Describe Heimlich maneuver.
    SKILL OBJECTIVE:

    • Demonstrate how to provide Heimlich


    maneuver to an adult, child & infant
    who have obstructed airway.
    CAUSES OF OBSTRUCTION

    • Improper chewing of large pieces of food.


    • Meat is the most common cause of
    obstruction in conscious adult.
    • The tongue is the most common cause of
    obstruction in the casualty who is
    unconscious.
    • Excessive intake of alcohol
    • The presence of loose upper and
    lower dentures.

    • For children – running while eating.

    • For smaller children of “hand-to-


    mouth” stage left unattended.
    1. ANATOMICAL OBSTRUCTION

    It happens when the tongue drops back and obstructs


    the throat. Other causes are acute asthma, croup,
    diphtheria, swelling, and cough (whooping).
    Management
    • OPEN AIRWAY using Head Tilt-Chin Lift
    Maneuver
    2. MECHANICAL OBSTRUCTION

    When foreign objects lodge in the


    pharynx or airways; fluids accumulate in
    the back of the throat.
    CLASSIFICATION OF OBSTRUCTION
    • In Mild FBAO, the victim can
    1. speak
    2. breath
    3. cough effectively
    What to do???
    • Encourage him or her to continue coughing in
    an attempt to dislodge the object.
    • Do not interfere with the casualty's efforts to
    remove the obstruction.
    2. SEVERE
    •unable to speak, breathe, or
    cough and may clutch the neck
    with the thumb and fingers.
    Movement of air is absent.
    • Presents with a completely blocked
    airway, and an inability to speak, cough, or
    breathe.
    • If the casualty is conscious, he or she may
    display the universal distress signal.
    Ask "Are YOU choking?" If the casualty
    is choking, do the following:

    • Shout "Help"-Ask the casualty if you can help.


    • Request medical assistance - Say "Airway is
    obstructed" (blocked); call (Local emergency
    number or medical personnel).
    • do Abdominal thrusts (Heimlich Maneuver)

    Management
    a. Stand behind the casualty.
    b. Place your arms around the patient’s
    waist.
    c.With your fist, place the thumb side
    against the middle of the abdomen, above
    the navel and below the tip (xiphoid
    process) of the (sternum) breastbone.
    d. Grasp your fist with your other hand.
    e.Keeping your elbows out, press your fist
    into the abdomen with a quick upward
    thrust.
    f. Repeat until the obstruction is clear or
    the casualty becomes unconscious

    Note: Feet should be in tripod position


    If the casualty becomes
    unconscious, do the following..
    • Place the casualty on his or her back
    • Call for HELP immediately!!!
    • Check AIRWAY
    – Head tilt-Chin Lift maneuver
    – Use "hooking" motion to dislodge object
    for removal (FINGER SWEEP) if VISIBLE Object
    only..
    Tongue-jaw lift/Finger sweep
    •Check BREATHING
    • LOOK
    • LISTEN
    • FEEL
    – For 5-10 seconds
    If No
    Breathing

    Step 1: Attempt to breathe into


    their mouth
    -if the chest doesn’t rise,

    Step 2- REPOSITION and


    RE-
    attempt ventilation
    -if still no air going in,
    If No
    Breathing
    Step 3: BEGIN CHEST COMPRESSION
    -Give 30 chest Compression s
    then 2 breaths
    “The only difference here from
    normal CPR is the you must check for
    the obstruction at the back of the
    throat as you open airway after every
    30 compressions and before giving 2
    rescue breaths.”
    Step 4: If the obstruction is
    visible, REMOVE it with a finger
    sweep
    After every 30
    compressions, repeat the
    previous steps (1-3) in
    an attempt to relieve
    obstruction.
    If the obstruction
    persists, continue this
    modified CPR sequence
    until help arrives
