Let Us Study
First Aid – is the first and immediate assistance given to any person suffering
from either a minor or serious illness or injury (Kindersley, 2009). It includes
self-help and home care if medical assistance is not available or delayed.
Primary and Secondary Survey of the Victim
v Is the scene safe? If YES, proceed to the next steps. If NO, do not attempt
to go to the accident. Call Emergency Medical Services instead.
v Make sure that the victim is lying on his back. If not, roll the victim.
v Check the responsiveness by gently tapping the shoulder of the victim
saying:
“Hey, hey, hey are you okay?”
v If there is no response, call for help immediately.
v Then, do the Primary and Secondary Survey.
1.) Primary Survey – is used when the victim is unconscious and to find
out and immediately treat life-threatening conditions.
• Airway – check if there is blockage in the airway (If yes, take it out
using your pinky finger in a scooping motion.
• Breathing – use the maximum head-tilt-chin-lift method and
method look-listen-feel (if negative, perform rescue breathing)
• Circulation – Use of carotid pulse (If negative, go to step 6).
• While applying maximum head-tilt-chin-lift method, pinch the
nose and give 2 initial full breaths to the victims.
• Take off the clothes of the victim that can block the compression
area.
• Perform CPR on the victim.
• Do 5 cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths.
• If the victim is revived, do the secondary survey of the victim. If not,
continue performing CPR while waiting for the rescue team.
• After that, do the Secondary Survey
2.) Secondary Survey – is used when the victim is conscious or has
revived. It aims to detect everything about the patient’s
condition. Record all the data and surrender to the rescue team.
Interview:
SAMPLE is the mnemonic in order to perform the steps more
easily.
