The Heimlich maneuver was revised due to concerns about its effectiveness and safety in certain situations, particularly in cases of severe choking. Studies indicated that back blows and chest thrusts could be more effective and safer for infants and certain adults. Additionally, the medical community sought to standardize guidelines for responding to choking incidents, leading to updates in training and recommendations. This evolution reflects a commitment to improving emergency response strategies.
