Description

The Act+Fast Anti-Choking Red Trainer is a wearable choking rescue trainer made for programs that need to cover multiple first-aid guidelines in a single tool. Like the Act+Fast Blue Trainer, it allows students to practice the Abdominal Thrust Maneuver (the Heimlich maneuver) on a live partner using a foam plug feedback system that visually confirms when correct force and technique have been applied. What distinguishes the Red Trainer is the addition of a back slap pad, which enables instruction in the back blow protocols required by the Red Cross and European Resuscitation Council, making this the better choice for courses that go beyond AHA guidelines alone. The trainer is worn around the torso of one student while a partner performs the rescue techniques, replicating the dynamics of a real choking emergency far more accurately than manikin-based practice. The adjustable straps accommodate a range of student body sizes, and the trainer works equally well in standing, seated, ground-level, and self-rescue scenarios. This covers the full range of positions in most first aid curricula. Also available without the back slap pad: Act+Fast Anti-Choking Blue Trainer, item #2218416. Weighs 4 pounds.
