Are you asking how to perform it? If so you kneel behind the head of the person. Place your fingers at the back of the jaw and lift the jaw upwards so that you do not move the victims head or neck.

when you suspect that there maybe a possible head/neck injury, just to the jaw thrust, not the head-tilt-chin-lift thing. if ever there's a neck injury, it's better prioritize your patient's airway first rather than the neck injury.


Because you want to maintain an open airway while minimizing movement for suspected headneckspinal injury?

Hi, Depending on if you have received level of first aid training this will depend.If you have basic or no training your aim is to keep the patient alive regardless of any suspected or obvious spinal injury. Therefore you should move the neck to keep the airway open and clear.However, if you have received first aid training in the 'jaw thrust', which is where you are showing how how to open the airway with minimal damage caused to the spine.REMEMBER BY READING FIRST AID INSTRUCTIONS DOES NOT CLASSIFY YOU AS A FIRST AIDER. YOU SHOULD ATTEND A FIRST AID COURSE.
