9. External Bleeding –Direct Pressure –Elevation –Pressure points Brachial/Femoral

10. Shock Can occur with any injury Most likely in –severe bleeding –internal injury –fractures Definition –Not enough blood available to circulatory system

11. –Dilation of blood vessels & imbalance of osmotic pressure Shock if untreated can cause DEATH Risky Conditions –extreme fatigue –extreme temperature –extreme dehydration –illness

12. Handling Shock Signs & Symptoms –Skin Moist, pale, cool, clammy skin Weak & rapid pulse Increased & shallow breathing decreased b.p. extreme thirst
