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

Applying ice directly to a burn can cause further tissue damage. Instead, use cool (not ice-cold) running water.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A person with a spinal injury should not be moved unless absolutely necessary. Keep them still and stabilize their head and neck.

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

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

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

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

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

CPR should begin immediately for a drowning victim who is unresponsive and not breathing to restore oxygen circulation.

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

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

Human bites can be more dangerous than animal bites because they often introduce harmful bacteria, leading to infection.

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

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

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

Frostbite should be treated by gradually warming the affected area using warm water (not hot) and seeking medical help.

Inhaling toxic fumes can cause serious respiratory issues, and the first step is to move the victim to fresh air.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A person with low blood sugar should be given a fast-acting sugar source like fruit juice or glucose tablets to restore normal levels.
