    The course of action is performing a series of 5 back blows by kneeling to the side and just behind the 15 month old. Place your arm across the chest for support. Bend the child over at the waist in order that the upper body is in ground parallel. exhibit five separate back blows in between the child's shoulder blades with assistance of the heel of your hand, then apply 5 chest thrusts or the Heimlich maneuver. This a first aid for choking and the signs and symptoms exhibited by the 15 month old is choking.
