Product Information

This may not mean much to the average person, but in the medical field this is extremely important as it is very dangerous to use something in an emergency that might not work in the time of need. Don’t worry, we will only contact you with regards to your enquiry and your details will be deleted forever after an appropriate period of time. We are certain non-invasive hand held suction devices will become part of the standard first aid choking protocol at some point in the future as LifeVac® is saving lives when BLS first aid fails. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has advised the companies that the devices should only be used by healthcare professionals or people with advanced life support training.

Since I set up the account for Hcsuk over 18 months ago I have found them to be an excellent advocate of our products.The LifeVac is a non-invasive airway airway clearance device (ACD) that can be used by anyone and everyone to save loved ones including children, yourself and patients from choking.

In 2008, Dr Gary Smith, the lead author of American Academy of Pediatrics’ policy statement on food hazards, said that some foods should simply not be given to children under the age of four or five. Leading first aid charity, St John Ambulance does NOT advise sticking your fingers down a child's or baby's throat when they're choking. Flag as inappropriate I havent had the chance to use the device fingerscrossed I never have to, but to know that I have it there incase needed it has put my mind at rest to know that I can have a chance at saving someone life in a chocking hazard eg family friends ect. Includes: 1 x LifeVac Emergency Airway Clearance Device; 2 x Medium Masks; 1 x Small Mask; 1 x Storage Box; 1 x Instruction Booklet; 1 x A5 Basic Life Support Leaflet; 1 x Feedback Form. The devices are already used in care homes across the country and there is a campaign for them to be more widely available, but emergency doctors are concerned that families may be misled by some of the promotional material.If possible the person making the claim should complete this form, but a family member, carer or medical professional may complete the form on the claimants behalf. The negative pressure generated by the force of the suction is 3 times greater than the highest recorded abdominal thrusts. The device is regulated by multiple national and international organizations, including FDA, MHRA, HPFB, MOH, SAHPRA, TGA, and CE, and is ISO 13485 accredited. Unfortunately, one size mask will not fit all so we have created a device that can be used on everyone by simply changing the mask. Invest in a LifeVac device today and gain peace of mind knowing that you have a reliable backup plan in case of choking emergencies.

HPC have supplied Hcsuk (Health Care Services Ltd) for well over a decade now and we would consider them to be a high quality and professional business run in an organised and progressive manor. I feel that as a company Hcsuk have got the desire and right people in place for growing in this competitive industry. The LifeVac is the only registered and regulated non-invasive Airway Clearance Device® (ACD) that is your everyday essential for protecting your family in a choking emergency. Thanks to Jo for going over and above to get us our items in time for our special event at Buddleia House – it was very much appreciated. Back by multiple peer reviewed medical publications covering safety, effectiveness, independent testing and comparisons to other ACD's.There is insufficient evidence on the safety or effectiveness of these devices for us to recommend their use, and we are concerned that the use of these devices could delay established treatments for choking. Feedback Form – The Feedback Form is to be filled out once your LifeVac is used to help us raise awareness and improve our service. The LifeVac Anti-choking Travel Kit offers peace of mind that comes with having 24/7 protection that could save a life when every second counts.

LifeVac® has two sonic welded discs for interchangeable sized masks, as one size will not “fit all” and a one-way valve system which means when applied no air can be forced through the interchangeable sized masks. The technical storage or access is strictly necessary for the legitimate purpose of enabling the use of a specific service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user, or for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network.The company was founded by Arthur Lih, the now-CEO of LifeVac in Springfield Gardens, New York City. It is always recommended to cut food up for children, for example you would not give a whole grape to a child as these are a “perfect” size to block their airway, it is recommended to cut grapes in at least half. The company is on a drive to convince regulators to relax the current restrictions in the UK, which it says do not apply in other countries.
