How to deal with the foreign body stuck in the throat

Food, foreign body stuck throat is common in eating or mouth foreign body when laughing, playing or crying, especially in children. As food or foreign matters are embedded in the glottis or fall into the trachea, the patient is suffocated or has severe dyspnea, which is manifested as sudden cough, inability to pronounce, wheezing, shortness of breath, purplish skin. In severe cases, consciousness loss may occur rapidly, or even respiratory and heartbeat stops. According to statistics, children under 7 years old are more common, especially those who just learned to walk to the age of two years old. When this kind of accident happens, it is very important to take some emergency measures in time. It may be in a few minutes that the patient can be saved.

In case of suffocation and suffocation of children, first aid should be given to the patient on site immediately while contacting the hospital or transferring the patient to the hospital.

1. Hold the child's waist from behind, make the child ride on the two thighs of the rescuer, back to the rescuer, place the middle finger and index finger of both hands on the abdomen under the child's thorax and on the navel, and press them up quickly, repeatedly and rhythmically until the foreign body is discharged. If the above methods fail to work, the right lying position should be taken immediately to let the foreign body enter the coarser and shorter right bronchus from the trachea, keep the left bronchus unobstructed and keep breathing, so as to win time for going to the hospital for rescue.

2. Clap the back, let the child lie on the knee of the rescuer, head down, hold his chest, pat his back, and make the child cough up foreign matters. Attention! If a baby's foreign body is blocked, it must not be clapped along the back. Most citizens think that it can be clapped down the back and into the esophagus. In fact, this is a mistake. Following the back of the clap, only the foreign body will be clapped deep into the trachea. The more blocked, the more serious.

3. Emetic method: extend the finger into the mouth to stimulate the tongue root to induce emesis, which is suitable for the foreign body in the trachea close to the throat.

IV. immediately resuscitate the heart and lung on the spot, and massage the heart outside the chest and perform mouth to mouth artificial respiration at the same time. Place baobaoping on the hard bed, press the lower part of the sternum with 2-3 fingers, and impact and compress rhythmically towards the spine, with a depth of 2cm and a frequency of about 100 times / min. For newborns, the thumb pressing method can be used to extend the palm and hold half of the child's thorax, press the thumb on the lower part of the sternum, and put the other four fingers together on the back, and then squeeze them relatively. Pay attention not to press too hard outside the chest to avoid fracture of the chest.

During mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, first of all, the secretions and vomitus in the mouth and throat should be removed to keep the respiratory tract unobstructed. Then put the baby's head back as far as possible, hold the lower jaw with one hand, hold the nostril with the other hand, take a deep breath and blow it into the baby's mouth. It is effective only when you see the chest expansion and fluctuation. Then open the nostril to let the air out with the chest retraction. The frequency is 30-40 times / min. Pay attention to moderate force, not too strong, to prevent the formation of pneumothorax caused by alveolar rupture.

If there is only one person present, it should be repeated 2 times of artificial respiration and 15 times of heart massage. When the artery pulsation is touched in the anterior part of the neck or the medial part of the groin, or the cyanotic complexion turns to ruddy gradually, or even spontaneous breathing occurs, it indicates that the rescue is effective. Of course, at the same time, we should try our best to get it to the nearby hospital as soon as possible.

To avoid baby suffocation, it is important to prevent it. For example, when sleeping, adults and babies should not be too close to each other to avoid crushing children. Don't let baby fall asleep while eating milk. Infants with respiratory diseases should pay attention to night care and often get up to observe the changes of children. When spilling milk, children should lie on their sides to prevent choking and suffocation.

Pay attention to the above life details to better prevent suffocation of children. We also need to know the first aid for children after suffocation in case of suffocation.

In addition: Professor Heimlich invented this technique, which has saved tens of thousands of lives of patients with laryngotracheal foreign bodies. Once there was a 6-year-old boy abroad who saved his 2-year-old sister's life in this way.

Make the child lie flat, face up, on the hard ground or bed board, and the rescuer kneels or stands on the foot side. Or take the seat, and make the child ride on the two thighs of the rescuer, facing forward. The rescuer put the middle or index fingers of both hands on the abdomen under the thorax and on the umbilicus of the child, and then hit and press the child up quickly, but gently. Repeat until the foreign matter is discharged.

It should be noted that back slapping and throat picking may deepen the foreign matters in the windpipe of choked children, so Heimlich emergency treatment is preferred.
