Daily News A leading surgeon invites the public to try a new method he has developed for forcing out' food stuck in the windpipe of people -who are choking to death The idea is to compress the air still in the lungs so that it can be made to pop out the plug of food like a cork from a champaign bottle are hoping this will lead to a first aid method for cafe food from the victim's mouth with a spoon or fingers Heimlich hopes people will write to him at Jewish Hospital Cincinnati on the results should they have occasion to use the technique That is the only way to tell whether it will provide the answer- to preventing some 3J900 chocking deaths a year he said There is nothing to lose since an unassisted victim will be dead in four minutes in the windpipe (tracheotomy) or insert a large-caliber hypodermic needle into the trachea to provide a temporary airway Recently an instrument called has been introduced to remove food from the back of the throat have this instrument available or someone skilled at tracheotomy on the spot at the time of this dire emergency would be fortuitous but rare said Dr Henry Heimlich of Cincinnati in a telephone interview Cafe coronary is the name given to the emergency that occurs in a restaurant or at home while dining The victim suddenly loses consciousness cannot talk or breathe and appears to be having a heart attack People panic not knowing what to do If a physician is on hand he can create an opening rescuer rapidly and strongly presses into the victim's abdomen forcing the diaphragm upward compressing the lungs and expelling the obstructing bolus Even after one totally exhales there are still 500 cubic centimeters of air in the lungs said Heimlich Sudden forceful compression of the lungs will increase the air pressure In the trachea and larynx The surgeon worked out the method on four 38-pound beagles but has not used it on human beings because an emergency hasn't arisen in his presence To subject volunteers to choking would notbeethicalhesaid But laymen can easily practice the procedure on one another by compressing the upper abdomen is no said die surgeon only hear a likelihood of future raw

Spending Policies Hit as the air is forced out" If the victim is lying face down on the floor the rescuer can obtain the same effect by sitting astride the lower torso or buttocks If the victim is on his back the rescuer sits astride him and forcefully presses both hands one on top of the other into the upper abdominal region A second person should be prepared to remove the ejected Arab oil embargo and decision to raise oil prices were factors leading to a economic disruption" Ash said He said that disruption is most visible in the 1 per cent decline in real output which the economy is

appeals on grounds that their own self-interest the continuing existence of whales provides a built-in protection against their extinction But testimony submitted by the Society for Animal Protective legislation said even an immediate moratorium may be too late to save some species is regrettable that a punitive approach should be necessary but attempts at persuasion have proved a dismal failure

permits people to avoid the hard decisions that they would have to face if all the facts were out in the open In the nuclear field secrecy has the effect of raising unwarranted fears of the unknown he
