Larry and Arthur Lih inventor of LIFEVAC.net discuss the device and its milestone of 3,000 lives saved

The vision of LifeVac came from a story that Arthur Lih, founder and CEO of LifeVac, heard of a woman in a hospital weeping following the death of her young son.  The reason for his death was that a grape had become lodged in his windpipe and the Heimlich Maneuver did not work.  Once he heard the story he set out to invent an apparatus that could clear an airway.  Arthur, Dr. Brody, and a few close friends set out to bring LifeVac to the public by establishing a research and development facility located in Springfield Gardens, NY where we are producing the upper airway clearing device in order to bring the safest, simplest method to save an aspirating person.  Our goal is to save as many lives as possible throughout the world.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
