Question

When giving abdominal thrusts to an adult who is choking, you should place your hands near the left side of the lower abdomen? true or false

Answer 1

Stand or kneel behind the person and wrap your arms around his or her waist. Locate the navel with one or two fingers of one hand. Make a fist with the other hand and place the thumb side against the middle of the person's abdomen, just above the navel and well below the lower tip of the breastbone.
