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

Agonal gasps (irregular, gasping breaths) are not normal breathing. CPR should be started immediately.

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

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

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

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

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

If a nosebleed lasts longer than 10 minutes, seek medical attention as it could indicate a more serious problem.

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

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

If an allergic reaction affects breathing, administer an EpiPen if available and call 911 immediately.

Carbon monoxide poisoning prevents oxygen from binding to red blood cells, leading to suffocation and organ failure.

A hypothermic person should be rewarmed gradually using dry blankets and warm fluids. Rapid warming can cause shock.

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

Asthma inhalers should be used when symptoms appear, not only when a person is unconscious. Delaying treatment can be dangerous.

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

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

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

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

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

Even if a head injury seems minor, delayed symptoms such as confusion, dizziness, or vomiting can indicate a serious problem.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Installing carbon monoxide detectors and ensuring proper ventilation can prevent dangerous CO buildup.

If an inhaler is not available and the attack worsens, call 911 immediately as it may become life-threatening.

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

During a seizure, keep the person safe by clearing the area and placing them on their side to prevent choking. Do NOT hold them down.

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

If an inhaler does not relieve an asthma attack, call 911 immediately, as the attack may become life-threatening.

You should always handle a knocked-out tooth by the crown, NOT the root, to protect its delicate tissues for reattachment.

Diabetic emergencies can cause confusion, dizziness, sweating, and shakiness due to abnormal blood sugar levels.

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

Never place anything in a person's mouth during a seizure. Instead, clear the area around them and let the seizure pass.

Applying direct pressure to a wound is the most effective way to stop severe bleeding.

Installing carbon monoxide detectors in homes and ensuring proper ventilation helps prevent CO poisoning.

Check if the person is responsive. If they are unresponsive, call 911 and begin CPR if needed.

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

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

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

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

Frostbitten areas should be warmed slowly using warm water (not hot) to avoid further damage.

Symptoms of shock include pale skin, weak rapid pulse, nausea, and excessive thirst. A slow, strong pulse is NOT typically associated with shock.

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

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

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

The first step is to get the victim to fresh air immediately. Carbon monoxide is dangerous because it is colorless and odorless.
