By Ted T. Crites, CHES
The original anti choking trainer. Built by a doctor, trusted by professionals worldwide.
Students feel authentic feedback. A foam plug ejects when technique is correct, confirming mastery.
Lightweight and portable, so you can train groups anywhere without bulky, expensive manikins.
Trusted by hospitals, fire departments, schools, and first responders around the world.
Supports abdominal thrusts and back blow training, covering ARC, AHA, and ERC guidelines.
Doctor-invented in 2008. Many imitations exist, but Act+Fast is the originator, built with high-quality neoprene.
Training becomes engaging. Students actively practice and get immediate feedback every repetition.
Three simple steps with instant feedback every time.

Position hands on the back slap pad and deliver back blows with correct force and placement.
Skip this step if your protocol doesn't include back blows.

Apply thrusts between the navel and ribcage, just as you would in a real choking emergency.

If technique is correct, the foam plug ejects, providing instant confirmation that the maneuver worked.
The trainer is built to last, made from high-quality neoprene — the same material used in wetsuits. With proper care, it should withstand years of frequent use in training environments.
Remove the PVC bladder and airway assembly, then hand-wash the neoprene vest with a mild detergent. Hang to air dry. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Yes, and if you lose them or need replacements, they can be ordered separately through our website or your local distributor.
Both simulate the abdominal thrust (Heimlich) maneuver. The Red Trainer includes an integrated back slap pad for practicing back blows per ARC guidelines. The Blue Trainer doesn't include a pad by default, but an attachable pad is available separately.
