A rescue device for a choking victim and a method of rescuing a choking victim is provided. The device includes a first tube that is configured to be inserted into the victims mouth so as to assist in dislodging a foreign object in the victims windpipe by creating a low-pressure environment within the victims mouth. The device further includes a second tube that is configured to allow a rescuer to create the low-pressure environment in the victims mouth by sucking on a second tube of the device. A filter is positioned between the first and second tubes to reduce sanitary concerns and to prevent the foreign object from becoming lodged in the rescuers windpipe.
