Systematic review and meta-analysis assess comparative effectiveness of antichoking devices in airway obstruction management, suggesting traditional methods remain preferred.
Antichoking devices may be useful in selected scenarios, but their comparative effectiveness remains unproven. Current evidence is limited and affected by bias. Traditional techniques should remain the priority in airway obstruction management. Further independent, high-quality research is needed to clarify the clinical value of antichoking devices.
