Показать описание
Watch the insights on "What are some things that one shouldn't do while choking?" by Dr. Himaaldev G.J. Consultant, Intensive Care, Apollo Hospitals.
Choking is a true medical emergency that requires fast, appropriate action by anyone available. Emergency medical teams may not arrive in time to save a choking person's life.
When someone is choking with a completely blocked airway, no oxygen can enter the lungs.
The brain is extremely sensitive to this lack of oxygen and begins to die within four to six minutes. It is during this time that first aid must take place.
