The Heimlich Maneuver - J2 Style
Jared is studying to be a paramedic and practices the Heimlich Maneuver on his partner, Jensen. The following is his study notes.
Jared's Step-by-Step Guide to a Successful Heimlich Manuever
(I have absolutely mutilated the proper Heimlich Maneuver procedures)
1. First, ask Jensen if he prefers to be in a standing or sitting postion (in this case, an upright postion is established);
2. Postion yourself slightly behind Jensen's standing form;
3. Reassure Jensen that you know what you're doing and will make him feel better;
4. Wrap your arms around Jensen's waist;
5. Grasp one hand with the other to get a better grip, at a position just above the belly button;
6. Deliver 5 rapid upward 'squeeze and thrusts' into Jensen;
7. Ensure each squeeze-thrust is strong and forceful;
8. Understand that the thrusts can make Jensen out of breath and a raspy cough is to be expected;
9. Keep a firm grip on Jensen as he could lose conciousness depending on the effectiveness of the maneuvers;
10. Repeat the Heimlich maneuver until the foreign body is expelled from Jensen.
Success! Now rest for a bit and try again. After all, practice makes perfect!!!
And a bonus one - please will someone expand on this?
Jared is a yoga instructor and Jensen is his limber student. Jared is always putting Jensen in unusal positions, determined to massage his prostate.
(OMG - that is actually true: "Yoga is perhaps the only form of activity which massages all the internal glands and organs of the body in a thorough manner, including those - such as the prostate - that hardly get externally stimulated during our entire lifetime.")
