About Us — Choke Shield

We Exist Because Every Second Counts

Choking is the fourth leading cause of accidental death in the United States. It strikes without warning — at the dinner table, in the kitchen, at a daycare, or during a quiet afternoon with a grandparent. In those terrifying moments, most people freeze. Not because they don't care, but because they simply don't have the right tool.
Choke Shield was built to change that.


Our Story

Choke Shield was founded by a group of parents, healthcare professionals, and safety advocates who shared one thing in common: a moment of helplessness they never wanted to feel again.
It started with a single incident — a toddler at a family gathering began choking on a piece of food. The adults in the room knew the Heimlich maneuver, but panic set in and precious seconds were lost. Thankfully, the child was saved. But that moment left a permanent mark on everyone present.
The question that followed was simple: Why isn't there a reliable, easy-to-use device that anyone — regardless of training — can grab and use immediately?
After months of research, collaboration with emergency medical professionals, and rigorous product testing, Choke Shield was born. Our mission from day one has been straightforward: put a life-saving tool within arm's reach of every family.


What We Stand For

Safety Without Compromise

Every Choke Shield device is designed to the highest safety standards. We work closely with EMTs, pediatricians, and first-aid specialists to ensure our product performs reliably in real emergencies — not just in controlled tests.

Simplicity That Saves Lives

In an emergency, there is no time to read a manual. That is why our device is engineered to be intuitive from the very first use. No batteries. No complicated assembly. No prior training required. Just grab, position, and act.

Accessible to Every Household

We believe that life-saving tools should not be a luxury. Choke Shield is priced to be accessible to every family, every caregiver, and every community — because emergencies do not discriminate.

Standing Behind Our Product

We are so confident in Choke Shield that we offer a free replacement if your device is ever used in a real emergency. Because when you use it to save a life, the last thing you should worry about is replacing it.
