If a choking victim is unresponsive and has no pulse, call emergency services immediately. Begin CPR by performing chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. After every 30 compressions, open the airway and give 2 rescue breaths; then continue the cycle. If you can, check the mouth for any visible obstruction and remove it if it's safe to do so.
Quickly check the pulse in her throat. If there is no pulse, then suspect a heart attack rather than choking. If she has a pulse, get help sitting the victim up and perform the Heimlich maneuver, 4 sharp pulls in a row. Repeat if nothing comes out.
The statement is false. CPR should only begin if the patient has stopped breathing or if their heart has stopped beating. While it is likely that a choking victim has ceased breathing if they have lost consciousness, it is not an absolute indicator.
If the patient is choking, the first priority is to clear the airway, not check the pulse. The airway should be cleared first, and then once the rescue breaths go in, check for a pulse.
Choking Victim
True
If signs of life become visible you should check for a pulse. If the victim has no pulse, CPR should be continued. If the victim has a pulse, CPR should be ceased but you must continue to monitor the victim's vital signs.

Insure there is no pulse before you attach the pads to the victim.
Artificial respirationAnother answer:I'd go with the Heimlich maneuver.
If a choking victim is coughing, you should encourage them to continue coughing forcefully, as this can help expel the object blocking their airway. Do not intervene unless the coughing becomes ineffective or the person cannot breathe, speak, or make sounds. In such cases, you can administer back blows and abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) to help dislodge the obstruction. Always call for emergency assistance if the situation does not improve.

Heimlick manuver. Just type that into a search engine.
