HOW LIFEVAC WORKS

LifeVac is designed with a patented valve to prevent any air from exiting through the mask. This patented designed valve prevents air from pushing food or objects downward. This creates a one-way suction to remove the lodged food or object in the event of choking.

• Generates over 300 mmhg of suction
• No prescription required

LIFEVAC CAN SAVE A LIFE

The LifeVac is a non-powered single patient portable suction device developed for clearing an airway when standard current choking protocol has been followed without success.

The negative pressure generated by the force of the suction is 3 times greater than the highest recorded choke pressure. The LifeVac generates over 300 mmhg of suction. The duration of suction is minimal so LifeVac is safe and effective. No prescription required.
