FIRST AID PE 10 SHOCK/FAINTING/REVIEW

WHAT IS SHOCK? Any injury or illness can be accompanied by shock. Shock is a circulation problem where the body’s tissues do not get enough blood. (Medical Shock… Not Electric shock) Depending on the severity, shock can lead to unconsciousness and even death There is often shock in a emergency situation. Always check for shock

CAUSES OF SHOCK Cause of Shock How it causes a circulation problem Severe BleedingNot enough blood to fill the vessels Severe BurnsLoss of blood plasma (fluid) into tissues- not enough blood to fill blood vessels Crush InjuriesLoss of blood and blood plasma Heart AttackHeart is not strong enough to pump blood properly Spinal Cord or Nerve InjuriesBrain can not control the size of he blood vessels, and the blood can not get to the tissues properly Severe Allergic ReactionsMany things can be affected- Breathing, heart function, etc. Common causes of severe shock

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF SHOCK SignsSymptoms Pale skin at first, turns bluish-greyrestlessness Bluish-purple lips, tongue, earlobes, fingernails anxious Cold and Clammy skinDisoriented, confused Breathing shallow & irregular, fast or gasping for air Thirsty, may be very thirsty Changes in level of conciousnessAfraid Weak, rapid pulseDizzy

HOW TO MINIMIZE SHOCK 1)Give First Aid for the injury or illness that caused the shock 2)Reassure the casualty often 3)Minimize pain by handling the casualty gently 4)Loosen tight clothing at the neck, chest and waist 5)Keep casualty warm, by do not over heat- use jackets, coats, blankets if you have them 6)Moisten the lips if the causality complains of thirst (medical help can be delayed due to fluids or foods given) Always make note of what was given and when 7)Place the casualty in the best position for their condition 8)Continue ongoing casualty care until hand over

POSITIONING A CASUALTY IN SHOCK No suspected head/spinal injury (conscious) -Place casualty on their back with feet and legs raised- this position is often called the shock position No suspected head/spinal injury (less than fully conscious) -Place casualty in recovery position (airway and breathing are priority) Suspected head/Spinal Injury -Steady and support the casualty in the position found and monitor ABC’s As Injuries permit - the casualty's injuries may not permit you to move them, so make them as comfortable as possible in the position that is safest to prevent further injury.

RECOVERY POSITION 1)Place near arm straight out. Place far arm with the back of the hand over the near cheek 2)Bend and grab the far knee 3)Protect the casualty’s head during roll 4)Adjust the hand under the head so the next is extended 5)Continue ongoing casualty care Shock Overview

FAINTING Fainting is a loss of consciousness that lasts a very short time- no more than a few minutes It is caused by a temporary shortage of oxygenated blood to the brain. Some common reasons people faint: -Fear or anxiety -Severe pain, injury, or illness -underlying medical problems -long periods of standing or sitting -lack of fresh air -sight of blood -fatigue or hunger

FAINTING A person losing consciousness is always a medical emergency. If you think there might be a serious reason a person feels faint, has fainted, get medical help Sometimes when a person is about to faint, there are warning signs, such as -pale -sweating -feels sick, nauseous, dizzy, and unsteady

FIRST AID FOR IMPENDING FAINT (ABOUT TO HAPPEN) 1)Lay the casualty down with the feet raised about 12 inches (one ruler length) 2)Ensure a supply of fresh air (open a window or door) 3)Loosen tight clothing at the neck, chest, and waist 4)Stay with the casualty until fully recovered

FIRST AID FOR FAINTING 1)Start ESM (scene survey, “you in the plaid shirt call 911”) 2)Check ABC’s 3)Secondary Survey if necessary and give first aid 4)Turn the casualty into the recovery position (if injuries permit) 5)Ensure a supply of fresh air and loosen tight clothing at the neck, chest, and waist 6)Make casualty comfortable until consciousness returns. Keep them laying down for minutes. (Recovery from a faint should be quick, if not get medical help)
