The document provides guidance on various first aid situations and protocols. It discusses rescue techniques for water emergencies, electrocutions, hazardous materials, vehicle accidents, fires, confined spaces, triage of multiple victims, safe victim movement techniques, and types of fire extinguishers. Proper first aid response is dependent on accurately assessing the situation and following recommended safety procedures.
Casualty lifting is the first step of casualty movement, an early aspect of emergency medical care. It is the procedure used to put the casualty (the patient) on a stretcher.
Developed emergency services use lifting devices, such as scoop stretchers, that allow secured lifting with minimal personnel. Other methods (explained below) can be used when such devices are not available.
Since only stabilised casualties are moved (except in unusual circumstances), the lifting is usually never performed in emergency; emergency movements are sometimes performed to respect the Golden Hour. This depends on the organisation of the medical services and on the specific circumstances.

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

2. Reach-throw-row-go
◦ Reach for victim.
◦ Throw anything that floats.
◦ Row by using canoe or other boat (not to be
attempted without personal floatation devices and
beware of water conditions).
◦ Go by swimming (absolute last resort, should not
be attempted by untrained personal or those
without personal flotation devices).
3. Extend a pole or throw a line to victim
with floatable object.
Pull victim toward shore or edge of
ice.
Do not go onto the ice ever.
4. Indoor electrocutions
◦ Faulty electrical equipment or careless use of
electrical appliances
◦ Turn off power at circuit breaker, fuse box, or
outside switch box before touching the victim
(make sure it is safe to touch the breaker or box, if
you do not know how to turn it off do not touch it).
High-voltage power lines
◦ Power must be turned off.
◦ Wait for trained personnel with proper equipment.
5. Signs of hazardous materials
◦ Signs on vehicle
◦ Spilled liquids or solids
◦ Strong, unusual odors
◦ Clouds of vapor
Stay away and upwind.
Wait for trained personnel to arrive.
6. Park in a safe area and call 9-1-1.
Turn on emergency hazard flashers. Raise
hood of vehicle.
Make sure scene is safe.
Turn off ignitions of all involved vehicles.
Place flares or reflectors.
If you suspect spinal injuries, stabilize head
and neck and do not move the patient
unless the scene is life threatening, ie
vehicle is on fire.
Check and care for life-threatening injuries
first.
7. Get all people out of the area quickly.
Call 9-1-1.
Use a fire extinguisher if the fire is small.
To use a fire extinguisher, aim directly at the
base of the flames and sweep across. Only
use an extinguisher rated for that type of fire.
If fire starts to spread leave the area
immediately.
8. Class A extinguishers are for ordinary
combustible materials such as paper, wood,
cardboard, and most plastics.
Class B extinguishers are for flammable or
combustible liquids such as gasoline,
kerosene, grease and oil.
Class D fire extinguishers are commonly
found in a chemical laboratory. They are for
fires that involve combustible metals.
9. Class C extinguishers are electrical
equipment, such as appliances, wiring, circuit
breakers and outlets. Never use water to
extinguish class C fires - the risk of electrical
shock is far too great!
Class K extinguishers are for grease fires.
Most common extinguishers is a combination
ABC extinguisher.
10. Any area not intended for human
occupancy
Dangerous atmosphere (low
oxygen levels) or other dangerous
gases
Requires special training and
equipment to perform rescue.
11. For confined space emergencies
◦ Call 9-1-1.
◦ Only enter if you have proper training and
equipment.
◦ Check motionless victims first.
◦ Once victim is removed, provide care.
12. Classify into care and transportation
priorities.
This helps determine who gets the
quickest treatment when there are
multiple victims.
There are 4 color coded
transportation/treatment categories.
Each company may have different
protocols and triage equipment but the
colors and categories should be the
same across the board.
13. Triage Category Typical injuries
Airway/Breathing
RED Uncontrolled/Severe Bleeding
Severe burns
Signs of Shock
Open chest/abdominal wounds
Burns with no airway problems
YELLOW Major/multiple bone or joint injuries
Back injuries with or without spinal
cord injuries
Minor fractures
GREEN Minor soft tissue injuries
Obvious Death
BLACK Obvious nonsurvivable injury
Respiratory Arrest
Cardiac Arrest
14. Only move victim if there is immediate
danger.
◦ Fire
◦ Hazardous materials
◦ Impossible to protect from hazards such as
uncontrolled traffic, unstable surroundings, weather
conditions, etc.
◦ Impossible to access other victims who need
lifesaving care
◦ If need to perform CPR and patient is face down
Protect victim’s spine.
Drag in direction of the long axis of the body.
