Answer: Unconscious person chocking = Cardiopulonary Resuscitation (CPR) Conscious person chocking = Heimlich Maneuver

Explanation: If a choking victim is conscious but cannot speak or cough, give them the Heimlich Maneuver, which is a system of abdominal thrusts. If a choking victim becomes unconscious you must perform CPR in order to save their life.
