On September 8th, 2026 a 2 year old boy choked on a meatball resulting in a total obstruction. Protocol was followed. LifeVac dislodged the obstruction on its first attempt! The child's mother described the incident as follows:
"As parents of four small children, we bought a LifeVac 'just in case' and just 24 hours after our little boy almost died from a choking incident (the food was cut properly for his age, and he still choked), we had to use it. We are endlessly thankful for LifeVac and having this tool on hand when an emergency happened. Knowing it’s there brings true peace of mind to our family, and we are so grateful for the work you do and for this device that saved our sweet boy."
