From May 27th Guardian:
'The surgeon who gave his name to the simple but dramatic procedure used to rescue people from choking, saved someone’s life with the Heimlich Manoeuvre for the first time this week aged 96.
Last Monday the retired chest surgeon encountered a female resident at his retirement home in Cincinnati who was choking at the dinner table.
Without hesitation, Heimlich spun her around in her chair so he could get behind her and administered several upward thrusts with a fist below the chest until the piece of meat she was choking on popped out of her throat and she could breathe again.'
