The medical-grade silicone mask conforms to different facial structures, and the controlled suction force is safe for all ages. Always ensure proper mask size selection for optimal effectiveness and comfort.

No specialized training is required. The device features intuitive Place-Push-Pull operation with clear visual graphics. The ergonomic design and one-button activation make it accessible to anyone during emergencies.

Unlike abdominal thrusts or back blows, the Breathyox device is completely non-invasive and doesn't risk pushing obstructions deeper. The dual one-way valve system prevents re-entry of dislodged material, and the Air-Stop backflow valve reduces secondary injury risk. It's gentler on the body while being highly effective.

Press the mask firmly around the edges to ensure complete contact with the face. You'll feel resistance when pulling the handle if the seal is proper. The transparent mask design also allows visual confirmation of seal quality. If suction feels weak, reposition the mask and press more firmly around the perimeter.

Yes, you can perform multiple push-pull cycles without removing the mask until the obstruction is cleared. The device is designed for repeated use during a single emergency. Keep the mask sealed against the face between pulls to maintain effectiveness. Continue until breathing is restored and the airway is completely clear.

The device effectively removes food items like meat, candy, and grapes; small toys and objects; gum; and other foreign materials blocking airways. It works on both soft and firm obstructions. The powerful suction accommodates various blockage types commonly encountered in choking emergencies across all age groups.

Store the device in a clean, dry location at room temperature, easily accessible for emergencies. Keep it in the original packaging or a designated emergency kit. Inspect the mask and valves periodically for damage. Clean with mild soap and water after any use, ensuring all components are completely dry before storage.
