LifeVac is a simple, safe, and effective choking rescue device that can help save a life in the event of a choking emergency. It works in seconds and can be used on both adults and children—no special training required. The device creates a gentle suction to help remove food or other objects blocking the airway. Just place the mask over the person’s mouth and nose, then push down and pull up.
There is no definitive age for a pediatric mask to be used. Per our mask manufacturer, 22 pounds is the recommended minimum weight for the pediatric mask to fit properly over the mouth and nose to provide a good seal and allow LifeVac to be as effective as possible. However, LifeVac has been used successfully under that weight at the discretion of a parent and after all other choking rescue procedures were performed and had failed.
No, LifeVac will never push an object further into the airway. Its one-way valve ensures that air escapes through the sides of the device, and not into the victim, when the plunger is pushed. When you pull the plunger up, it creates suction to remove the obstruction.
While the LifeVac device itself never expires, our mask manufacturer recommends replacing the masks every two to three years, or by the expiration date on the packaging. We also recommend periodically inspecting the masks for any signs of wear.
While the actual life-saving device in each kit is the same, each kit contains different items:
The Home Kit is designed for use by the general public and provides customers with both an adult and pediatric mask, as well as a practice mask that can be used to familiarize customers with the life-saving device.
The Travel Kit is designed for those who already have a home kit and would like an additional unit to take on the go. The Travel Kit comes in a zip-up yellow bag—perfect for keeping in your car, luggage, or diaper bag.
The EMS Kit is specifically designed for professional first responders, including police, firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics. The EMS Kit includes both an adult and pediatric mask and ensures quick access for those already trained in its use
Equip your facility with the life-saving device trusted by first responders, schools, and medical professionals. Protect those around you by ensuring they have the tools to act when it matters most.
