Only 32% of victims receive assistance from a bystander.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a first aid technique used to manually preserve brain and organ function until further emergency measures are taken. It involves chest compressions and rescue breaths to circulate oxygenated blood when someone's heartbeat or breathing has stopped. CPR alone is unlikely to restart the heart, but it increases the chances of defibrillation working. The general procedure of CPR involves checking for responsiveness, calling for help, opening the airway, and then providing cycles of 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths until emergency services arrive with a defibrillator.
1. The document provides guidance on assessing an unconscious casualty and performing CPR. It outlines checking for breathing, providing artificial respiration if no breathing, and performing chest compressions and artificial respiration if there is no breathing or pulse.
2. Steps for performing mouth-to-mouth respiration and chest compressions are described, including compressing at a rate of 100 times per minute and providing breaths.
3. An alternative chest compression method called the Silvester method is also described for situations where mouth-to-mouth is not possible.
4. Guidance is provided on transporting casualties aboard ship, including using a Neil-Robertson stretcher and precautions for moving a casualty vertically.
CPR is a technique used to manually maintain brain and heart function until further medical help arrives. It involves chest compressions to pump the heart and rescue breaths to oxygenate the lungs. The goal is to reverse clinical death by restoring spontaneous breathing and circulation. CPR procedures differ slightly for adults, children, and babies but generally involve alternating between chest compressions and rescue breaths at specific rates until emergency services take over or the individual starts breathing and their heart is beating on its own again. Complications can include broken ribs or sternum, internal bleeding, and damage to internal organs.
This document provides guidance on performing basic life support (BLS). It describes how to respond to medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest, choking, bleeding, burns, and more. For cardiac arrest, the key steps are to check for safety, call for help, then begin high-quality chest compressions combined with rescue breaths at a rate of 100-120 per minute until emergency services arrive. Switching rescuers every few cycles helps maintain effectiveness. An automated external defibrillator should be used as soon as available.
1. First aid and CPR are emergency procedures performed until medical help arrives. CPR involves chest compressions and rescue breaths to pump the heart and provide oxygen to vital organs.
2. Everyone should learn hands-only CPR involving 100 chest compressions per minute. An AED may also be used to deliver an electric shock if needed.
3. First aid aims to minimize pain, prevent injury from worsening, and accelerate recovery. It includes clearing airways, checking breathing and circulation, and starting CPR if needed. First responders should also call for emergency help.
The document provides information on basic life support (BLS) training. It begins with an introduction stating that BLS skills are vital for healthcare providers to learn and re-learn. The document then defines BLS and its key components, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), maintaining an open airway, and chest compressions. It provides guidance on performing CPR for adults, children, and infants. The document emphasizes the importance of early recognition of emergencies and prompt treatment, as well as following the proper techniques and timing for chest compressions. It concludes by noting some key points to remember when performing BLS, such as positioning oneself at the victim's side and avoiding obstructing the airway during

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
