2 Bleeding Cuts or Wounds Bleeding is severe You suspect internal bleeding There is an abdominal or chest wound Bleeding can't be stopped after 10 minutes of firm and steady pressure Blood spurts out of wound 1. Stop Bleeding Apply direct pressure on the cut or wound with a clean cloth, tissue, or piece of gauze until bleeding stops. If blood soaks through the material, don t remove it. Put more cloth or gauze on top of it and continue to apply pressure. If the wound is on the arm or leg, raise limb above the heart to help slow bleeding. Wash your hands again after giving first aid and before cleaning and dressing the wound. Do not apply a tourniquet unless the bleeding is severe and not stopped with direct pressure. 2. Clean Cut or Wound Gently clean with soap and warm water. Try to rinse soap out of wound to prevent irritation. Don t use hydrogen peroxide or iodine, which can damage tissue. 3. Protect the Wound Apply antibiotic cream to reduce risk of infection and cover with a sterile bandage. Change the bandage daily to keep the wound clean and dry. 4. When to Call a Doctor The wound is deep or the edges are jagged or gaping open. The wound is on the person s face. The wound has dirt or debris that won t come out. The wound shows signs of infection, such as redness, tenderness, or a thick discharge, or if the person runs a temperature over 100º F. The area around the wound feels numb. Red streaks form around the wound. The person has a puncture wound or deep cut and hasn t had a tetanus shot in the past five years, or anyone who hasn t had a tetanus shot in the past 10 years.
3 Hands-Only CPR for Adults Call 000 if a person : Collapses Becomes unresponsive 1. Check Responsiveness Tap the person's shoulder and shout, "Are you OK?" Look for normal breathing. Call 911 if there is no response. Start Hands-Only CPR. Hands-Only CPR should not be used for adults whose cardiac arrest is due to drug overdose, neardrowning, or an unwitnessed cardiac arrest. In these cases, do a conventional CPR combination of chest compressions and rescue breathing. 2. Do Chest Compressions Place the heel of your hand on the center of the person's chest. Place the heel of your other hand on top of your first hand, lacing fingers together. Keep arms straight and your shoulders directly over your hands. Push hard and fast, compressing chest at least 2 inches. Let chest rise completely before pushing down again. Compress at least 100 times per minute. 3. Stop Only if: The person starts breathing normally A trained responder or emergency help takes over You are too exhausted to continue There is an automated external defibrillator (AED) to use 4. Use an AED as Soon as One Is Available Turn on the AED. It will give you step-by-step instructions. Wipe chest dry. Attach the pads. Plug in connector, if needed. Make sure no one is touching the person. Say "Clear" so that people know to stay back and not touch the person. Push the "Analyze" button if necessary. If a shock is advised, push the "Shock" button. Resume compressions and follow AED prompts.
4 Thermal Burns Treatment Burn penetrates all layers of skin Skin is leathery or charred looking, with white, brown, or black patches Burn blister is larger than two inches or oozes Hands, feet, face, or genitals are burned The person is an infant or a senior Cover loosely with sterile, nonstick bandage or, for large areas, a sheet or other material that that won t leave lint in wound. For All Burns 1. Stop Burning Immediately Put out fire or stop the person's contact with hot liquid, steam, or other material. Help the person "stop, drop, and roll" to smother flames. Remove smoldering material from the person. Remove hot or burned clothing. If clothing sticks to skin, cut or tear around it. 2. Remove Constrictive Clothing Immediately Take off jewelry, belts, and tight clothing. Burns can swell quickly. Then take the following steps: For First-Degree Burns (Affecting Top Layer of Skin) a. Cool Burn Hold burned skin under cool (not cold) running water or immerse in cool water until pain subsides. Use compresses if running water isn t available. b. Protect Burn Cover with sterile, non-adhesive bandage or clean cloth. Do not apply butter or ointments, which can cause infection. c. Treat Pain Give over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol), or naproxen (Aleve). d. When to See a Doctor Seek medical help if: You see signs of infection, like increased pain, redness, swelling, fever, or oozing. The person needs tetanus or booster shot, depending on date of last injection. Tetanus booster should be given every 10 years. Redness and pain last more than a few hours. Pain worsens. e. Follow Up The doctor will examine the burn and may prescribe antibiotics and pain medication.
5 For Second-Degree Burns (Affecting Top 2 Layers of Skin) a. Cool Burn Immerse in cool water for 10 or 15 minutes. Use compresses if running water isn t available. Don t apply ice. It can lower body temperature and cause further damage. Don t break blisters or apply butter or ointments, which can cause infection. b. Protect Burn Cover loosely with sterile, nonstick bandage and secure in place with gauze or tape. c. Prevent Shock Unless the person has a head, neck, or leg injury, or it would cause discomfort: Lay the person flat. Elevate feet about 12 inches. Elevate burn area above heart level, if possible. Cover the person with coat or blanket. d. See a Doctor For Third-Degree Burns a. Call 911 b. Protect Burn Area The doctor can test burn severity, prescribe antibiotics and pain medications, and administer a tetanus shot, if needed. Cover loosely with sterile, nonstick bandage or, for large areas, a sheet or other material that that won t leave lint in wound. Separate burned toes and fingers with dry, sterile dressings. Do not soak burn in water or apply ointments or butter, which can cause infection. c. Prevent Shock Unless the person has a head, neck, or leg injury or it would cause discomfort: Lay the person flat. Elevate feet about 12 inches. Elevate burn area above heart level, if possible. Cover the person with coat or blanket. For an airway burn, do not place pillow under the person's head when the person is lying down. This can close the airway. Have a person with a facial burn sit up. Check pulse and breathing to monitor for shock until emergency help arrives. d. See a Doctor Doctors will give oxygen and fluid, if needed, and treat the burn.
6 Choking Treatment The person is choking. The person is unconscious. While Waiting for 911 If the Person Is Conscious but Not Able to Breathe or Talk: 1. Give Back Blows Give up to 5 blows between the shoulder blades with the heel of your hand. 2. If Person Is Still Choking, Do Thrusts If the person is not pregnant or too obese, do abdominal thrusts: Stand behind the person and wrap your arms around the waist. Place your clenched fist just above the person s navel. Grab your fist with your other hand. Quickly pull inward and upward. Continue cycles of 5 back blows and 5 abdominal thrusts until the object is coughed up or the person starts to breathe or cough. Take the object out of his mouth only if you can see it. Never do a finger sweep unless you can see the object in the person's mouth. If the person is obese or pregnant, do high abdominal thrusts: Stand behind the person, wrap your arms them, and position your hands at the base of the breast bone. Quickly pull inward and upward. Repeat until the object is dislodged. 3. Give CPR, if Necessary If the obstruction comes out, but the person is not breathing or if the person becomes unconscious: For a child, start CPR for children. For an adult, start CPR for adults. 4. Follow Up When emergency medical personnel arrive, they will take over and may do CPR or take the person to the hospital, if needed.
7 Concussion Treatment Is vomiting repeatedly Has unequal pupils Is confused or agitated Has weakness on one side of the body Passes out or is unconscious Is very drowsy or unable to wake up Has neck pain after a fall Has slurred speech Has a seizure 1. Prevent Swelling and Further Injury Have the person stop activity and rest. Apply ice wrapped in a washcloth. 2. Treat Symptoms For pain, take over-the-counter acetaminophen (Tylenol). Aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) may make bruising worse. 3. Monitor Symptoms If possible, stay with the person for 24 hours. 4. When to Call a Doctor Anyone with a suspected concussion should be seen by a doctor. Once discharged, seek immediate medical care again if any of these symptoms develop: A headache that seems to be getting worse Continued vomiting Increased drowsiness or dizziness Increased confusion Young children may not have the same symptoms as adults. Seek immediate medical help if your child will not nurse or eat after a head injury or if you cannot get them to stop crying. 5. Follow-Up Symptoms will likely improve in 7 to 10 days. Call your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
