If within 30 seconds the signs of asphyxia only grow, it is necessary to call an ambulance and immediate order to apply the method of the Heimlich maneuver.

Squeeze one hand into a fist and the back of your hand, where is the thumb, put the victim in the epigastric region (below the rib cage but above the navel). The palm of his second hand lay on top of the fist. Quick push push the fist into the abdomen of the victim, sharply bending your elbows.
