Life Saved by ArixMed #1306
On August 11, 2026, Chris, a 58-year-old man, was eating dinner at home when a piece of potato blocked his airway.
Alone at home, Chris tried to clear the obstruction, but it wouldn’t come out. He then used the ArixMed Choking Rescue Device himself and successfully cleared his airway after three attempts.

Chris’s story is a powerful reminder that choking can happen anytime — even when you are alone. At ArixMed, we always support following standard choking first aid guidelines, including back blows and abdominal thrusts when appropriate. ArixMed is designed as an additional option when standard methods may not work.
Because in a choking emergency — especially when you’re alone — having no option is not an option.

Be Prepared. Every Second Counts.
Choking can happen anytime — even when no one is around to help. One kit covers the whole family, with masks for both kids and adults. Give yourself peace of mind before an emergency happens.
