OBJECTIVES describe the different types of common emergencies. explain first-aid treatments for common emergencies. identify when it is time to call for medical assistance.

COMMON EMERGENCIES Insect bitesBurnsPoisoning Object in the Eye NosebleedFainting Heat Cramps Heatstroke SprainsBruises Broken Bones

SPRAIN A minor sprain can be treated using the P.R.I.C.E method. sprain A condition in which the ligaments that hold the joints in position are stretched or torn

P.R.I.C.E. The P.R.I.C.E. Method P R I C E Protect the inured part by keeping it still. Rest the affected joint for 24 to 48 hours. Ice the injured part to reduce swelling and pain. Compress the injured area by wrapping it in an elastic bandage. Elevate the injured part above the level of the heart.

FRACTURE There are two types of fractures. fracture A break in the bone Open FractureClosed Fracture Complete break with one or both sides of the bone piercing the skin. Does not break the skin and may be difficult to identify.

INSECT BITES Wash the area of the bite. Apply a special lotion for relief. Remove the insect’s stinger by scraping against the affected area with a fingernail. Apply ice or a cold pack to relive pain and prevent swelling.

BURNS First-Degree Burns DescriptionTreatment Affects only the outer layer of the skin. There may be some swelling and pain. Cool the burn with running water. Immerse the burn in cold water, or apply cold compress for at least 15 minutes. Cover the burn with a sterile bandage.

BURNS Second-Degree Burns DescriptionTreatment Burns through the first layer of skin and burns the second layer of skin. Blisters develop. Skin looks red and splotchy. Severe pain and swelling. If the burn is no longer than 2 to 3 inches in diameter, can be treated as a first-degree burn. If the burn is larger, get medical help immediately.

BURNS Third-Degree Burns DescriptionTreatment Involves all layers of the skin and may affect fat, muscle, and bone. Burned area may be charred black or appear dry and white. May be little or no pain. A pain deeper than the skin is called a fourth-degree burn. First, call for medical help. Treat the victim for shock as described in Lesson 6. Do not remove burned clothing. Apply cold water to the burn, then cover with a sterile bandage or clean cloth. Keep the victim still and help him or her to sip fluids.

POISIONING A poison is a substance that causes harm when swallowed, inhaled, absorbed by the skin, or injected into the body. Medicines and household products play a role in about half of all poisonings.

POISIONING Call the nearest poison control center. UTAH POISON CONTROL CENTER

POISIONING If a poisonous chemical has made contact with someone’s skin, remove all clothing that has touched the chemical and then wash the surface of the skin for 15 minutes. Call the poison control center.

FOREIGN OBJECT IN EYE Do not rub your eye. Use clean water to flush the object out.

FOREIGN OBJECT IN EYE If someone else has a foreign object in the eye: –Locate the object by gently pulling the lower lid downward while the person looks up. –Hold the upper lid open while the person looks down. –If the object is floating on the surface of the eye, lightly touch the object with a moistened cotton swab. –Call for medical attention if you cannot remove the object.

NOSEBLEED Pinch shut the bleeding nose between the thumb and index finger. Breath through your mouth for 5 to 10 minutes. If the bleeding is heavy and it continues for more than 15 minutes, get medical help.

FAINTING Fainting is a brief loss of consciousness that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is cut off for a short amount of time.

FAINTING Leave the person lying down and check the airway. Raise the legs above the level of the head if the person is breathing. Loosen any tight clothing. If the person does not regain consciousness in a minute, call for help and start CPR.

HEAT EXHAUSTION Three heat-related illnesses are heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heatstroke. heat cramps Painful, involuntary muscle spasms that usually occur during strenuous exercise in hot weather heat exhaustion Characterized by faintness, nausea, rapid heartbeat and hot, red, dry, or sweaty skin heatstroke The most serious form of heat illness

HEAT CRAMPS Heat Cramps Rest Cool down Drink water or a sports drink Do gentle stretching

HEAT EXHAUSTION Heat Exhaustion Lie down in a shady or air-conditioned place Elevate the feet Loosen clothing Offer cold, not iced water Fan the victim while spraying them with cool water

HEATSTROKE Heatstroke Call immediately for medical assistance. A heatstroke occurs because the body has stopped sweating. The primary symptoms are a significant increase in the body temperature and a rapid heartbeat and shallow breathing.
