INTRODUCTION TO FIRST AID
First Aid
● Immediate help provided to a sick or
injured person until professional
medical help arrives or becomes
available
● A way of preparing an individual to
respond to emergency situations
quickly
● Administering first aid techniques
before medical help arrives
● Initial assistance or treatment given
to a person who is injured or
suddenly ill
Objectives of First Aid
● Preserve life.
● Prevent further harm
complications.
● Seek immediate medical help.
● Provide reassurance.
Qualities of a Good First Aider
(GORTEC):
● Gentle​ - minimize pain
● Observant - observe other possible
injuries
● Resourceful - make use of hand, or
other things in his/her surrounding
● Tactful - should be careful in using
words
● Empathy - should be caring, putting
your self into patient/victim condition
● Careful - not to add injury or pain for
the victim/patient
Protection from Infection:
When you give first aid, it is important to
protect yourself (and the patient) from
infection as well as injury.
● Take steps to avoid
cross-contamination – transmitting
germs or infection to a casualty or
contracting infection from a casualty.
● Infection is a risk even with relatively
minor injuries.
Universal Precautions
● A set of strategies developed to
prevent transmission of blood borne
pathogens
COMMON EMERGENCIES
1. Closed wound
- A wound where the outer layer of the
skin is intact and the damage lies
below the surface.
First Aid Management
● Apply an ice pack.
● Elevate the injured part.
● Do not assume that all closed
and wounds are minor injuries.
● Help the person to rest.
● Provide comfort and reassure the
person.
2. Open Wound
- The outer layer of skin is broken.
The break in the skin can be as
minor as a scrape of the surface
layers or as severe as a deep
penetration.
Types of Open Wounds
● Abrasion (Gasgas)
● Laceration (Laslas)
● Avulsion (Wakwak)
● Amputation (Putol)
● Puncture (Tusok)
First Aid Management
● Control bleeding
● Clean with soap and water
● Cover the wound
● Consult physician
3. Burns
● 1st degree burn. A superficial burn
- involves only the outermost layer of
 skin, the epidermis. It usually heals
well if first aid is given pro​...
First Aid Management
...
● 2nd degree burn. Partial thickness
burns are very painful. They destroy
the epidermis and cause the skin to
become red and blistered.
First Aid Management
➢ Running the skin under cool water
for 15 mins or longer
➢ Taking over-the-counter pain
medication (acetaminophen or
ibuprofen)
➢ Applying antibiotic cream to blisters
● 3rd degree burn. In full-thickness
burns, pain sensation is lost, which
masks the severity of the injury. The
skin may look waxy, pale, or charred
and need urgent medical attention.
SPECIAL SITUATIONS
1. Nosebleeds
- Bleeding from the nose most
commonly occurs when tiny blood
vessels inside the nostrils are
ruptured, either by a blow to the
nose, or as a result of sneezing,
picking, or blowing the nose.
First Aid Management
● Tell the casualty to sit down and tilt
his head forward to allow the blood
to drain from the nostrils.
● Advise the casualty not to speak,
swallow, cough, spit, or sniff since
this may disturb blood clots that
have formed in the nose. Give him a
clean cloth or tissue to map up any
dribbling.
● After 10 mins, tell the casualty to
release the pressure. If the bleeding
has not stopped, tell him to reapply
the pressure for two further periods
of 10 mins.
2. Poisoning
Ways in which poisoning may occur
● Ingestion - by mouth
● Inhalation - by breathing
● Injection - by animal bites, stings,
syringes
● Absorption - by skin contact
First Aid Management ​for Ingested
Poisoning
● Try to identify the poison.
● Place the victim on his/her left side.
● Monitor ABC's.
● Save any empty container, spoiled
food for analysis.
● Save any vomitus and keep it with
the if he/she is taken to an
emergency facility
MEDICAL CONDITIONS
1. Seizure. A sudden involuntary muscle
contraction, due to uncontrolled
electrical activity in the brain, caused by
many different conditions
First Aid Management
● Assess ABC's.
● Protect patient for further injury.
● Transport if necessary.
➢ Stay calm, most seizures only last a
few minutes.
➢ Prevent injury by moving any nearby
objects out of the way.

seizure.
➢ Make the person as comfortable as
possible.
➢ Keep onlookers away.
➢ Do not hold the person down.
 ➢ Do not put anything in the person's
mouth.
➢ Do not give the person water, pills,
or food until the person is fully alert.
➢ If the seizure continues for longer
than 5 minutes, call 911.
➢ Be sensitive and supportive, and ask
others to do the same
2. Asthma. A lung disease in which there
is intermittent narrowing of the bronchi
(airways), causing shortness of breath,
wheezing​...
First Aid Management
● Call medical assistance.
● Help patient use his or her
medication (usually an inhaler).
● Help the patient rest and sit in a
position to breathe easily.
