Bir hadisənin qarşısını almaq, o hadisə baş verəndən sonra onun nəticələrini aradan götürməkdən daha asandır...


Administering a rescue breath
Clear the victim's mouth of blood, mucus, broken teeth and other foreign objects using a circular motion with your finger.
Place one hand on the victim's forehead, two fingers of the other hand under the chin, on the jaw bone. Open the airway by simultaneously tilting the head back and lifting the chin up and forward.
Pinch the victim’s nose, using the thumb and forefinger of the hand, that’s on the victim’s forehead, and use the other hand to hold the victim’s chin.
Take a deep breath and seal your mouth over the victim’s mouth. Give a breath into their mouth for about 1 second until their chest rises. At the same time, observe the chest to confirm it rises.
Pull your mouth away and give a second rescue breath within 1 second after the chest has fully descended.
For infants up to 1 year of age, press your mouth around the infant's mouth and nose. Blow a breath into the infant's mouth and nose.
If the chest doesn't rise during rescue breath, repeat the method of opening the airway (Fig. 2).
First aid for penetrating chest injuries

If there is no foreign body in the wound, immediately close the wound with your palm and prevent air from entering (if the victim is conscious, instruct them to use their own hand to cover the wound). For penetrating wounds with both an entrance and an exit wound, both wounds shall be sealed.

Place the victim in a semi-sitting position. Cover the wound with a clean, airtight material (polythene bag, aluminium foil, etc.). Seal the chest with adhesive plasters or bandages on three sides (so that air escapes from the chest when exhaling, and does not enter the chest when inhaling). Have the victim lean onto the injured side. The foreign body shall not be removed from the wound!

Call an ambulance. If the victim is unconscious, check for breathing and pulse. If necessary, perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. If the victim is unconscious but breathing, place them in a recovery position (healthy side facing up).
First aid of penetrating abdominal injuries

If the victim is conscious, position them on their back with their legs slightly bent. Place any pillow-shaped item under victim's knees. Call an ambulance. Monitor their breathing and pulse.

Do not put the organs protruding from the abdominal cavity back in place! Place the protruding organs on top of the wound and cover it with a clean cloth soaked in warm water. Polyethylene bag or aluminium foil can also be used.

If there is a foreign body in the wound, stabilize it by securing it in place with a bandage or clean cloth. The foreign body shall not be removed from the wound!
