Common symptoms of poisoning include nausea, vomiting, confusion, and difficulty breathing.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is life-threatening, and the first step is to move the victim to fresh air immediately.

Running cool (not ice-cold) water over a minor burn for several minutes helps reduce heat and prevent further tissue damage.

Moving the person to a cool environment and providing fluids helps reduce body temperature gradually.

Wild animal bites carry a high risk of rabies or infection and should always be examined by a medical professional.

Lying the person flat with legs elevated improves circulation and blood flow to vital organs.

To check if someone is breathing, look for chest movement, listen for breath sounds, and feel for air movement on your cheek.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, making it extremely dangerous.

Signs of heat stroke include confusion, hot/dry skin, and rapid pulse. Unlike heat exhaustion, the victim does NOT sweat.

Cold water is effective, but ice-cold water or direct ice application can cause further damage to the tissue.

Applying firm, direct pressure is the most effective way to stop bleeding from a deep laceration.

You should call Poison Control immediately for instructions instead of trying to induce vomiting, which can make the situation worse.

A person in cardiac arrest will be unresponsive, have no pulse, and will not be breathing normally.

A splint prevents movement of a broken or injured limb to avoid further damage.

A concussion can have delayed symptoms, so the person should be monitored closely and should avoid activities that worsen their condition.

Do NOT push the bone back in. Instead, cover the area with a sterile dressing and immobilize the limb while waiting for emergency help.

An AED is used when a person is unresponsive and has no pulse. It delivers a shock only if needed.

Laying the person flat and elevating their legs improves circulation and helps restore normal blood flow to the brain.

Tilting the head back can cause blood to go down the throat. Instead, the person should lean forward and pinch their nostrils.

Third-degree burns destroy nerve endings, which may result in no pain. However, they are the most severe and require medical treatment.

A hypothermic victim should be warmed gradually with dry blankets and warm fluids, avoiding rapid temperature changes.

Compressions should be at least 2 inches (5 cm) deep to effectively circulate blood.

If you suspect a heart attack, the first step is to call 911 immediately. Early treatment can prevent serious damage or death.

For adult CPR, hands should be placed in the center of the chest, on the lower half of the sternum.

Unlike heat exhaustion, heat stroke causes hot, dry skin and confusion, and is a medical emergency.

Pinching the nostrils and leaning forward helps stop bleeding while preventing blood from flowing into the throat.

The first priority in treating a deep open wound is to apply direct pressure to control bleeding before cleaning and dressing the wound.

If a person is unresponsive and has no pulse, CPR should be started immediately to maintain circulation and oxygenation.

The best way to treat an electrical shock victim is to first disconnect the power source before providing first aid.

An EpiPen (epinephrine) is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis, as it quickly reverses severe allergic reactions.

CPR should be stopped only when the person starts breathing normally, emergency responders arrive, or you are too exhausted to continue.

Vomiting can worsen certain types of poisoning, such as chemical or petroleum-based substances. Always contact poison control first.

If someone is choking and unable to breathe, the first step is to ask if they need help. If they cannot respond, perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver).

Flushing the eye with water for at least 15 minutes helps remove the chemical and prevent further damage.

You should NOT remove an embedded object. Instead, apply pressure around it and seek medical help.

Tilting the head back can cause blood to flow into the throat and airway. Instead, the person should lean forward and pinch their nostrils.

Before assisting a victim, always turn off the power source to prevent further injury.

Keeping the head and neck still is crucial to prevent further spinal damage.

FAST stands for Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time to call 911. Recognizing these signs early can save lives.

Animal bites should be cleaned with soap and water, and medical help should be sought to assess infection risk.

CPR is only performed if a person is unresponsive AND not breathing. If they are breathing, monitor them until help arrives.

Clean the wound with soap and water and seek medical attention, as human bites can introduce harmful bacteria.

Never hold down a person having a seizure. Instead, clear the area and protect their head while allowing the seizure to pass.

Cleaning the wound with water and covering it with a sterile dressing prevents infection and promotes healing.

A second-degree burn should be cooled with running water, covered with a clean bandage, and left undisturbed to heal.

If a person is unable to speak or cough, perform the Heimlich maneuver (abdominal thrusts) to help expel the obstruction.

Laying the person flat and elevating their legs improves circulation and helps restore blood flow to the brain.

For mild allergic reactions, an antihistamine like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can help reduce symptoms.

Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) can cause confusion, dizziness, sweating, and shakiness. Immediate treatment is needed.

Cold therapy (ice) is recommended for the first 24-48 hours to reduce swelling and pain. Heat can worsen swelling early on.
