Basic principles of first aid : Life and Rescucitation - ABC
3. Circulation :
If the victim is unconscious, then after giving mouth to
mouth respiration twice, the heart should by pressed
down hard by pressing the chest with both the palms.
These two actions should be repeated alternately about 15
times. This is called cardio-pulmonary rescucitation (CPR).
It helps to bring the circulation back to normal.
Bleeding :
If the victim is injured and bleeding through the wound, then
the wound should be covered with an antiseptic pad and
pressure applied on it for 5 minutes with either thumb or palm.
Other Basic principles of first aid
Other Basic principles of first aid :
Fracture and impact on
vertebrae :
If any bone is fractured, it is
essential that the fractured
part be immobilized. It can be
done with the help of any
available wooden
rods/batons/rulers. If there is
an impact on the back or
vertebral column, the patient
should be kept immobile on a
