lifewand is an FDA-registered, patent-pending, easy-to-use home device designed to help remove choking obstructions. The design enables anyone, regardless of their physical strength, to quickly and easily help a choking person. lifewand is suitable for use in kitchens, kindergartens, and anywhere else kids might be at risk of choking. The user presses lifewand against the child's mouth and nose, and lifewand will do the rest. A pressure-sensitive mechanism activates lifewand as soon as it's pressed against a child's mouth and nose, generating a swift vacuum that pulls out any lodged obstruction.
