Pneumomediastinum following the Heimlich maneuver.

G A Agia, D J Hurst.   

Abstract

The Heimlich maneuver appears to be a widely accepted technique advocated as a means of clearing an obstructed airway. Reports of complications have been few. We report a case of pneumomediastinum that occurred following the generation of increased pulmonary pressures during performance of the Heimlich maneuver.
