A10-year-old female just collapsed on the floor after choking on a grape. what would be your first action after calling 911?

the right answer is check the girl's state of consciousness, talking to her and asking questions.

a conscious victim is able to answer questions. she does not tend to go to sleep and can follow your eyes. she is lucid and she can talk.

a semi-conscious victim is not able to answer clearly or correctly the questions asked. she does not seem fully awake and lucid. it gives the impression that it may fade from one moment to the next and it can also appear to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

an unconscious victim does not respond and does not respond to words or pain.

the answer is: give 30 chest compression

when we choke on foods, the pathway that we use to breath is blocked and prevented air from coming into our body. this could resulted in death within minutes after occurrence. because of this, after witnessing such choking accidents, we need to call 911 and immediately give the chest compression in order to open up a pathway for air to come in.
