The correct answer is False.
Explanation
The Heimlich Maneuver, also known as "abdominal thrust" is a first-aid procedure to unblock the airway ( obstructed by food or another object). It is a technique developed by Dr. Henry Heimlich (hence known as "Heimlich Maneuver") in 1974 and disseminated as an effective way to save lives in the event of asphyxia by choking.
To perform the maneuver in adults, the follow these steps:
1. With the subject standing, hug the subject from behind with both arms.
2. In this position, press the abdomen with one hand closed and the other covering the first. (You should rest your fist between his/her navel and chest, and press in and up, towards the center of her/his stomach).
3. His/her belly is thus compressed between the fist and the rescuer's body, which forms an upward pressure.
According to the above, the abdominal thrusts is not administrated to the victim's back, but it is administrated in the victim's abdominal zone.
