Thank you so much, great refresher! When you do the jaw thrust, are you actually luxating the TMJ? And my second question, once you do it and let go of the jaw, will it stay in the same position, allowing the airway to remain open or do you have to hold it, just like you do with the head tilt chin lift? Thanks

Hi, thanks! No, we are just pushing the mandible forward/up until you meet natural resistance. It is not a forceful movement, though it may seem to be on the manikin due to the resistance of rubber and plastic in the manikin. The jaw will generally move back to it's original position once the jaw thrust is released, which is why we teach to "pull the face into the mask" when ventilating, which will help to retain that jaw thrust position.
