Place your arms around their waist and make a fist with one hand, placing the thumb side against the middle of their abdomen, above the navel. Grasp your fist with your other hand and perform quick, inward and upward thrusts. Repeat until the object is dislodged or the individual can breathe again.
What advice do you give if abdominal thrusts are used?
If abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) are performed, ensure that the person is truly choking and unable to breathe, cough, or speak.

Grasp your fist with your other hand and thrust inward and upward sharply. After several thrusts, if the person does not become unblocked, call emergency services for further assistance.

Stand behind her, placing your hands just above her belly button and give firm, upward thrusts until the object is dislodged. It's crucial to call for emergency medical help immediately if the obstruction is not cleared.
