This document provides information on first aid priorities and treatments for various animal-related injuries. It discusses first aid for bites from animals like dogs and snakes, as well as stings from insects and injuries from marine creatures. For each type of injury, it outlines steps like reassuring the victim, cleaning and dressing wounds, immobilizing injured areas, and seeking further medical help if needed. The goal is to minimize harm until professional medical assistance arrives.
first aid in Insects bites and heat stroke.pptxanjalatchi
Most insect bites and stings are mild and can be treated at home. They might cause itching, swelling and stinging that go away in a day or two. Some bites or stings can transmit disease-causing bacteria, viruses or parasites. Stings from bees, yellow jackets, wasps, hornets and fire ants might cause a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).
This presentation includes the first aid measures one can provide in case of accidental as well as intentional poisoning in order to minimize the morbidity and mortality in victims with poisoning.

Insects Bites & Stings: can be divided into 2 groups venomous insect such as a bee or wasp, which uses this as a defense mechanism by injecting toxic and painful venom through its stinger.
Non-venomous insect bites pierce the skin to feed on blood. This usually results in intense itching.
Papular Urticaria:
common disorder manifested by chronic or recurrent papules caused by a HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTION to the bites of mosquitoes, fleas, bedbugs, and other insects
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.

1.3.4 bites & stings
1.
2. Introduction
First-Aid Priorities
Animal Bites
Dog Bites
Insect Stings
Injuries by Marine Creatures
Snake Bites
Q & A
3. Most animals will not turn aggressive unless provoked.
Staying away from these wild animals could prevent many
unnecessary injuries.
It is only wise be equipped with a first aid kit when involved
in outdoor activities.
Before attempting a rescue, ensure personal safety before
approaching a victim that is under attack.
Always call 995 for assistance if you are unable to handle
the situation alone.
4. 1. Ensure personal safety before attempting rescue
2. Assess victim’s condition (e.g. consciousness level)
3. Calm the victim by reassuring victim
4. Treat any visible injuries and minimize any risk of further
injury and infection.
5. Call 995 if you are unable to handle the injuries alone
6. Identify the injury and the source to assist the medical team
in treating the wounds and anticipating certain symptoms
such as anaphylactic shock.
5. Animals with sharp teeth can cause deep puncture
wounds and carry germs deep into the tissues and result
in an infection.
Any bite that breaks the skin can cause the victim to
become very vulnerable to infection.
6. • Canines are born with teeth to hunt and an instinct that
commands it to bite whatever targets it considers as prey.
• These instincts could result in very severe injuries to the
victim.
• Dogs are generally very protective over
- Food
- Territory
- Young
• When threatened, they
will attack to protect them.
7. • Do not run past a dog
• Do not travel alone in the wild
• Do not approach a dog when it’s eating
• Do not approach a dog when it’s tied up
• Do not snatch anything that belongs to the dog
• Do not pat any stray dog even if it seems pitiful or cute
8. • Avoid attracting a dog to you with food or sound
• Do not approach a dog when it is nursing its puppies.
• Never force a dog into a corner or threaten it for the fun
of it.
• Treat every dog you do not know with caution.
• Do not throw objects or provoke animals (Dogs etc…)
• Do not intrude into their territory

12. 1. Control bleeding by
applying direct
pressure and raising
the injured part.
13. 2. Cover the wound with a
sterile dressing or a non
fluffy clean pad
bandaged in place to
control bleeding.
3. Arrange to take or send
the casualty to hospital.
14. 1. Wash the wound
thoroughly with
soap and warm
water in order to
minimize the risk of
infection.
15. 2. Pat the wound dry with clean gauze swabs and
cover with an adhesive dressing or small sterile
dressing.
3. Advise the casualty to see a doctor in case
inoculation (vaccination) is needed. If the wound
is large or deep, arrange to send the casualty to
hospital.
16. Rabies
A potentially fatal viral infection of the nervous system,
spread in the saliva of infected animals.
Hepatitis B or C viruses
There is probably only a small risk of hepatitis B or C
viruses being transmitted through a human bite.
17.
18. • Reassure the casualty.
• Apply constant firm
pressure, scrape or brush
the sting off with your
fingernail or blunt edge
of an object. (Tweezers
are not recommended as
it may squeeze the
venom sac thus
increasing the venom
released).
Bee Sting
Bee Sting
19. • Some people are allergic to stings and can
rapidly develop the serious condition of
anaphylactic shock. Multiple stings can also be
dangerous.
• Stings in the mouth or throat are serious, as
swelling can cause obstruction to the
airway.
20. • If stung on the fingers or hands, remove any rings
and watches in case of swelling.
• Wrap a few ice cubes in a towel and apply on the
area for 10-15 minutes to stop the pain and swelling.
Do not apply ice directly on the sting area to prevent
frostbite.
Advise the casualty to see his doctor if the pain and
swelling persist.
22. • Reassure the casualty. Give the casualty ice to suck or
cold water to sip, to minimize swelling. DIAL 995 FOR
AN AMBULANCE.
23. Red, swollen, or warm lump
Hives
Rash
Itching, tingling, numbness, burning, tenderness, pain
Serious allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) occur when symptoms
spread. These can include difficulty in breathing, dizziness,
nausea, diarrhea, fever, muscle spasms, or loss of
consciousness. Call for emergency medical help right away.
24. • Use insect repellants
• Wear long pants / T-shirt
• During an attack, cover your face and run in a straight line
as quickly as possible.
• Grab a net, coat, towel, or anything that will give you
momentary relief.
• During your escape, try to find shelter like a house, tent or
car with windows and door closed.
25. • Avoid other people as they too may come under attack.
• Bees may pursue for up to 400m
• They are slow fliers and most people can outrun a bee.
• Hence, be alert for bees coming in and out through cracks in
a wall.
• Stay away once you notice a bee colony. Do not provoke it.
26. • Using fine-pointed
tweezers, grasp the tick’s
head as close to the
casualty’s skin as
possible.
• Use a slight to-and-fro
action to lever, rather
than pull, the head out.
The mouthparts will be
very firmly embedded in
the skin; try to avoid
breaking the tick and
leaving the buried head
behind.
27.
28. Sea creatures can cause
injury in various ways.
Severe poisoning and
occasionally death results
from a severe allergic
reaction (anaphylactic
shock)
Paralysis of the chest
muscles leads to
drowning.
29. Jellyfish
Jellyfish stings occur when:
people brush against it in the water
step on those washed ashore.
Jellyfish washed ashore can sting for
weeks.
Detached tentacles can also release
venom.
30. • The Portuguese Man-of-War (a type of jellyfish)
is well known for its painful and powerful sting.
• The stings can cause:
– Fever
– Shock
– Heart and lung problems.
31. • Box Jellyfish (sea wasp) have tentacles containing
thousands of stinging cells.
• Stings occur when people bump into them.
• Tentacles become sticky and adhere tightly to the
skin.
• Venom is released when in contact with human
skin.
• Causes severe pain.
32. • Sea urchins are found in tropical and
subtropical marine regions.
• Spines of the sea urchins deliver their venom.
• Sting can cause severe burning pain, swelling,
bleeding, itch, nausea, muscle weakness and
difficulty breathing.
• Symptoms can develop immediately and last
up to 6 hours.
• Deep puncture wounds may be seen after a
sting.
33. • Stingrays are often found buried and feeding in shallow water.
• Stingrays are not aggressive by nature.
• People are usually stung when they step on the stingray.
• The sting causes profuse bleeding, swelling and severe pain that
can last for months. Other symptoms that may develop are
nausea, diarrhea, sweating, muscle cramps, and fits.
34. • Reassure the casualty and sit him or her down, pour vinegar or
sea water over the injury to disable stinging cells that have not
yet released venom.
• Dust dry powder over the skin around the affected area to
make any remaining stinging cells stick together. Talcum
powder is very good for this. Meat tenderizer, used in barbecue
cooking, is also good as it contains papain, which inactivates
venom.
• Gently brush off the powder with a clean, non-fluffy pad.
35.
36. 1. Gently pull out any
protruding spines. Do
not crush the spines.
2. Soak the affected area
into hot (not scalding)
water for 30-90 minutes
to ease pain. If pain
returns later, try the
heat soaks again.
3. Send the casualty to
hospital.
37. • Proper footwear
• Be careful when handling marine creatures as they
may have venomous spines and stings
• Keep away from jellyfish
40. • A snake bite is often not a serious injury, but it can be very
frightening.
• Reassurance is vital, for if the casualty keeps still and calm,
the spread of venom may be delayed.
• Try to get a description of the snake. This will help the
doctor to identify the snake and the correct treatment. Do
not try to catch the snake.
• Notify the police if the snake remains at large.
41. • A pair of puncture marks.
• Severe pain at the site of the bite.
• Redness and swelling around the bite.
• Nausea and vomiting.
• Difficulty breathing; in extreme cases,
respiration may stop altogether.
• Disturbed vision.
• Increased salivation and sweating.
42. 1. Lay the casualty down.
Tell the casualty to
keep calm and still.
2. Gently wash the wound
and pat dry with clean
swabs. DIAL 995 FOR
AN AMBULANCE.
43. 3. Lightly compress the limb above the wound with a roller
bandage. Use triangular bandages to immobilize the
affected area to minimize the spread of venom.
4. Position the injured limb below the level of the heart. If
she stops breathing, be ready to resuscitate if needed.
*DO NOT apply a tourniquet, a bandage or ice on the
wound, slash the wound with a knife, or suck the venom.
5. If there is eye irritation, rinse the eye under gently running
cool water for at least 15 minutes. Prevent run-off water
from entering the unaffected eye.
44. Keep the heart above the
level of wounded part
Tie narrow-fold bandage in
figure-of-eight around feet
Lightly compress with
Roller bandage
Leave bite exposed
45. • Do not try and chase, provoke, catch or beat up
the snake
• Move away if you spot a snake
46.
47. • Most animals and insects do not usually attack
unless injured or provoked
• You must always take sensible precautions before
attempting, for example, to rescue a casualty from
an angry dog or a swarm of bees.
• If you cannot cope alone, get help or call 995 for
ambulance
