injured person?
2. What do you call someone who applies first

3. When do you use them?
4. What is the objective of first aid? - to prolong

16. -are generally used for minor

strip or backing.
Adhesive Dressing
-can be used with any injury, but
are especially useful for burns
and abrasions where the injury is
at the surface of the skin.
Nonadherent Dressings
-British Pharmacopeia dressings
combine a bandage and pad
dressing in one unit to be used
for large deep wounds.
BPC Dressings

18. Follow these steps to avoid further harm or infections.
• Wash hands before pulling on clean disposable gloves.
• Use a sterile dressing that extends about 2cm past the edges of the
wound.
• Do not touch the surface that will contact the wound.
• If the wounds are minor, clean with sterile or clean water before
applying the dressing.
• Replace at least once a day any dressing that gets wet and soiled.
• Wash hands after removing gloves.

19. Follow these steps to avoid further harm or infections.
• Wash hands and wear gloves, if possible.
• Unwrap the dressing as close to the wounds as possible. Be sure not to touch the
wound.
• Skin is not sterile. If the dressing slips over the victim's skin while you are trying to
position it, discard it and use a fresh one.
• Place the dressing over the wound.
• Use a dressing that is large enough to extend at least 1 inch beyond the edges of the
wound.
• If the body tissue or organs are exposed, cover the wound with a dressing that will
stick.
• Then secure the dressing with a bandage or adhesive tape.

20. - is any material used to wrap or cover a
wound, sprain, and fracture
- used to apply pressure to bleeding, cover
wounds and burns, and support
immobilization for broken bones, sprains
and strains.

21. They can be used as dressings, pads,
padding, or slings.
Triangular Bandages
These can be elastic or nonelastic
bandages made from long strips of material
and come in various widths.
Roller/Ace Bandages
It is used to support joints or holds
dressings in place. The smaller tubular
bandage is used for finger injuries.
Tubular Bandages

22. • OPEN PHASE BANDAGING - used for wounds
on top and back of the head, chest, back,
hand, and foot and as an arm sling.
• CRAVAT PHASE BANDAGING - used for
wounds that need extra support like wounds
on the eye, forehead, ear, cheek, jaw,
shoulder, hip, arm, elbow, leg, knee, and
palm, and for a sprained ankle. The narrow
the cravat, the greater pressure it will give.

24. 1.Keep in mind the following:
a. Always use a square knot.
b. Keep the cloth sterile to avoid infection.
c. Always keep the ends.
2. Bandaging techniques depends upon the size and location of the
wound, your first aid skills, and materials at hand.
3. Bandaging firmly over bleeding and securely over the broken bone,
not so tight so as not to cut off blood circulation.

25. 4. When wrapping bandages around the body, such as knees,
ankles, neck and small back use its natural hallows to slide
the bandage gently into place.
5. Since most injuries swell, check regularly to ensure that
the bandage is still comfortable and that it remains firmly
secured.
6. Secure the bandages with tape, clips or a bow or square
knot. Ensure that the bandages, especially the knots, do not

34. • Why should we use dressing and bandages on wounds?
• Can we use any cloth as a dressing or bandage? Why and
Why not?
• Why is it necessary to apply the proper techniques on
applying dressing and bandages?
• What is the first thing to do in case of emergency?

35. Knowing what to do and how to do it in case of emergency can
lessen the extent of injury. Having the necessary first aid skills can
help you save lives.
If first aid is not given, it may result to worsening of patient’s
condition, permanent damage, or even death.

39. Wounds
• is a break in the continuity of tissue in the body. It may be
closed in which there is no break or damage to the skin.
It is also called hematoma or contusions. A wound may
also be an open wound in which there is a break in the
skin.
Kinds of Open Wounds
• Puncture
• Abrasion
• Incision

40. An open wound caused by nails,
needles, and other pointed
objects.
Puncture
Caused by rubbing or scrapping
the skin against a rough surface.
Abrasion
A cut caused by a knife, broken
glass, or any sharp object.
Incision

41. For the management of hematoma, we use the mnemonic RICE:
• Resting the injured part
• Ice application
• Compression
• Elevation
