Heimlich heirs push back on back blows debate
Sen Claire McCaskill choked at a lunch last month and was saved by Sen Joe Manchin using the Heimlich maneuver. The Heimlich family campaign Hug Dont Hit aims to promote the abdominal thrust method over back slaps, challenging Red Cross guidelines. The controversy centers on which first aid step is most effective amid mixed scientific guidance. McCaskill, grateful for the rescue, later said a cracked rib was a small price for survival.
