Bleeding, technically known as hemorrhaging ,is the loss of blood escaping from the circulatory system. Bleeding can occur internally, where blood leaks from blood vessels inside the body, or externally,
The document discusses wounds, bleeding, and first aid treatment. It defines open and closed wounds and their characteristics. It describes how to treat amputations and severed body parts. The objectives of wound care are to control bleeding and prevent infection through cleaning and dressing. Signs of bleeding include rapid pulse and pale skin. Methods to control bleeding include applying direct pressure, elevation, and pressure points. Proper care includes washing, cleaning, dressing, and bandaging wounds while maintaining pressure and circulation.
There are three main types of bleeding: arterial, venous, and capillary. Arterial bleeding is the most severe as blood spurts from damaged arteries in time with heartbeats. Venous bleeding is also serious as veins carry a high blood volume, though blood flows consistently rather than spurting. Capillary bleeding is the least serious as blood trickles from capillaries before stopping. First aid treatments involve applying direct pressure with dressings or bandages to control bleeding from arteries, veins, or capillaries.
Severe bleeding can occur from arteries, veins, or capillaries and cause death within minutes if not treated. Direct pressure, elevation, and digital pressure are emergency treatments for severe bleeding. Direct pressure involves pressing a sterile dressing firmly over the wound for 10-15 minutes until bleeding stops. Elevation above the heart slows blood flow and speeds clotting. Digital pressure is applied at pressure points on bones near arteries to control blood flow and must only be used briefly as an addition to direct pressure and elevation.
this is the peresentation about the first aid of bleeding and the definition of wounds and the different types of the wounds.
As it is understood first aid play an essential and important role in our daily lifes.
This document discusses different types of wounds, including their classification, characteristics, and management. It describes closed wounds that occur with blunt trauma, like contusions, and open wounds from penetrating trauma, like abrasions, lacerations, incisions, punctures, and gunshot wounds.

Internal bleeding signs include pale skin, pain, vital sign changes, and blood from body openings. Management prioritizes ABCs, blood transfusion, fluids, and possibly surgery. The document advises against probing wounds or removing dressings to avoid more bleeding.
Sutures are used to close cuts and wounds by approximating skin edges. The choice of suture technique depends on factors like the wound type, skin thickness, and desired cosmetic result. Absorbable sutures like Vicryl gradually dissolve, while non-absorbable sutures like nylon and Prolene are permanent unless removed. After suturing, patients should avoid stretching the wound, take rest, keep it dry for 24 hours then clean gently with soap and apply antibiotic ointment to prevent scabbing.
This document provides information on basic first aid for bleeding. It discusses the different types of bleeding (capillary, venous, arterial), common causes of bleeding (trauma, medical conditions, medicines), and treatment for severe bleeding. The treatment section outlines steps to address severe bleeding such as applying direct pressure to stop the bleeding, elevating the injured body part, and seeking emergency medical help when bleeding is under control or continuing to wait for assistance. Military and civilian first aid approaches are also briefly mentioned.
Deep vein thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in the deep veins of the leg, usually caused by prolonged immobility. When sitting for long periods, such as on a plane, the calf muscles do not contract and blood circulation decreases, allowing a clot to form. Part of the clot can break off and travel through the bloodstream as an embolism to the lungs, blocking vessels and causing a pulmonary embolism. Symptoms of deep vein thrombosis include leg pain and swelling, while a pulmonary embolism causes shortness of breath, chest pain, and other issues. Both conditions are serious and require medical treatment.
This document discusses techniques for achieving hemostasis during surgery. It begins by defining hemostasis and describing the three major steps in the process. Temporary measures for achieving hemostasis include applying local pressure or vascular clamps. Definitive measures include suture ligation, clipping, electrocautery, bipolar devices like Ligasure, ultrasonic devices like Harmonic Scalpel, and hemostatic agents. Common instruments used include Crile forceps, Kelly forceps, Mixter forceps, Adson forceps, bulldog clamps, and electrocautery pencils. Achieving proper exposure, localization, and a precise act are important when controlling bleeding during surgery.
- Minor injuries such as cuts, scrapes, sprains, burns, blisters, bruises, dislocations and nosebleeds can generally be treated with basic first aid measures like cleaning the wound, applying pressure, using RICE therapy, keeping it cool or dry, and allowing it to heal.
- More serious injuries like deep wounds, choking, fainting or continued bleeding require immediate medical attention to prevent infection or further injury. Proper first aid, like giving back blows and abdominal thrusts for choking or raising the legs for fainting, can help until emergency help arrives.
This document discusses different types of bleeding and first aid procedures. There are three main types of bleeding: arterial, venous, and capillary. Arterial bleeding is the most severe and results in the highest blood volume loss, as the blood spurts from the damaged artery in rhythm with heartbeats. Venous bleeding is also serious due to the high blood volume in veins, though the blood flows out consistently rather than spurting. Capillary bleeding is the least serious. The document provides first aid instructions for each type, including applying direct pressure to arterial and venous wounds and cleaning then bandaging capillary wounds.
This document defines hemorrhage and describes different types and causes. It classifies hemorrhage into four classes based on percentage of blood volume lost. It discusses traumatic causes like wounds and medical conditions that can cause bleeding. The key principles for managing hemorrhage are elevation, direct pressure, pressure points and tourniquets if needed. Internal bleeding requires medical treatment. Psychological support for the child and family is also important in emergency management of pediatric hemorrhage.
This document provides information about first aid training. It discusses the importance of first aid and how prompt administration can mean the difference between life and death. The objectives of first aid are to prolong life, alleviate suffering, and ensure first aiders' responsibilities end when medical professionals take over. The document then goes on to describe first aid kits, treatments for various injuries like cuts, puncture wounds, shock, and burns. It provides steps for cleaning wounds, controlling bleeding, preventing infection, and positioning victims of shock.
There are two types of wounds: external bleeding which is bleeding seen coming from outside the wound, and internal bleeding which involves discoloration of the skin with the skin intact. External bleeding can be capillary, venous, or arterial with arterial being the most severe form involving cuts to arteries. The RICES method is used to treat injuries and involves rest, ice, compression, elevation, and sometimes splinting or immobilization of the injured area. Specific treatments are also outlined for eye injuries which depend on the type of injury but may involve irrigation with water, cold compresses, and over-the-counter pain medication. Surgical options like enucleation and evisceration are also defined for removal of diseased
A sprain is an injury to a ligament caused by tearing of the ligament fibers. The most common sprains are ankle and knee sprains, which cause swelling and pain. For minor sprains, the RICE method can be followed - Rest, Ice, Compress, and Elevate the injured area. Ice should be applied for 15-20 minutes several times per day to reduce swelling. Get medical help for sprains that cause inability to bear weight, joint instability, numbness, or prevent joint use, as this may indicate a complete ligament tear. Emergency care is also needed for infection signs, or re-injury of a chronic problem area.
This document provides information on basic animal first aid. It discusses treating minor wounds like scratches through cleaning and applying topical antibiotics. It distinguishes between lacerations, which are jagged tears of soft tissue, and puncture wounds caused by sharp objects. Lacerations may require sutures, but the first steps are stopping bleeding with direct pressure, protecting the wound, immobilizing it, and seeking veterinary care. Abscesses form when bacteria become trapped under healing skin and cause infection. They range in size and require veterinary drainage and treatment. The document outlines techniques for stopping external bleeding through direct pressure, elevation, and applying pressure to the supplying artery if needed before seeking veterinary help.
This document provides an overview of hemorrhage (excessive bleeding) including its definition, causes, signs and symptoms, effects on the body, and first aid treatment. Hemorrhage is defined as the loss of blood from the vascular system and can be caused by wounds, fractures, surgery, accidents, or anatomical defects. Signs include pallor, faintness, and thirst. Effects depend on the amount of blood lost and can include decreased blood pressure and organ dysfunction. First aid involves applying direct pressure to the wound, elevating the limb, use of a tourniquet if needed, and seeking immediate medical help. Special types of hemorrhage from different body sites are also discussed.

Respiratory Organs consist of two zones
- Conducting zone
- Respiration zone
Ventilation: is a mechanical process that moves air in and out of the lungs.
Gas exchange: gas exchanges in the lungs in the end of the bronchioles called alveoli Air filled alveoli account for most of the lung volume.
Lungs: Each is cone-shaped with anterior, lateral and posterior surfaces contacting ribs, Superior tip is apex, just deep to clavicle, and Concave inferior surface resting on diaphragm is the base.
Pleura: Around each lung is a flattened sac of serous membrane called pleura
Inspiration: move air from out to inside.
Expiration: move air from inside to outside

LDL is a type of cholesterol that transports cholesterol from the liver to tissues throughout the body. It contains the protein apolipoprotein B-100. LDL particles enter cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis. The LDL receptors on cells recognize and bind to apolipoprotein B-100, triggering the LDL particle to be engulfed by the cell. Inside the cell, the LDL particle is degraded to release free cholesterol. High intracellular cholesterol levels inhibit cholesterol synthesis and reduce production of LDL receptors to maintain cholesterol homeostasis within the cell.
This document discusses chirality in organic chemistry. It defines chirality as a quality of molecules that are non-superimposable on their mirror images. The most common cause of chirality is the presence of a tetrahedral carbon atom bonded to four different groups. Such carbons are called chiral centers or stereocenters. The document explains that molecules can be either right- or left-handed depending on the orientation of groups around the chiral center, which are designated as R and S configurations using Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules. Examples of chiral and achiral molecules and compounds with different stereocenters are provided.
The document discusses standardization, pharmacopoeias, good manufacturing practices (GMP), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and process validation as they relate to pharmaceutical chemistry. It defines standardization as confirming a drug's identity, quality, and purity. A pharmacopoeia establishes standards for drug substances and dosage forms used in a country. GMP provides assurance that medicines are manufactured safely, efficaciously, and qualify. ISO is an international standard-setting body. Process validation involves collecting data throughout production to establish a process can consistently deliver quality products.
The document discusses halogens and their medicinal uses. It covers the five halogens found in group 17 of the periodic table (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine) and their physical properties like density and electronegativity decreasing from fluorine to iodine. Halogens and halogenides have medical importance, with chlorinated lime, iodine solutions, and salts like sodium chloride being used. Hypochlorites are also discussed as unstable compounds containing hypochlorite ion, used for bleaching, disinfection and water treatment when in aqueous solution.
