NESCONSET, N.Y., June 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- LifeVac, the revolutionary airway clearance device (ACD), has registered its sixty-second overall life saved and its twentieth save of a child. "We are happy and proud whenever LifeVac saves a life, but it is especially heartwarming when we hear from parents about a saved child," said Arthur Lih, Founder and CEO of LifeVac. "LifeVac was invented due to the loss of a child and our mission continues to be total eradication of accidental choking deaths," Lih continued. "Whether it's a piece of food, a leaf or a plastic toy the most consistent feedback parents provide is that all current choking protocols failed, including abdominal thrusts and back blows. LifeVac worked as designed every time and saved the life of their child," Lih concluded.
