Enlisted Aviation Warfare Specialist

The 3 objectives of first aid

Prevent further injury,


Infection,


The loss of life

The fundamental elements of first aid (8)

Bleeding


Burns


Fractures


Electric shock


Obstructed airways


Heat related injuries


Cold weather injuries


Shock

4 methods of controlling bleeding

Direct pressure


Elevation


Pressure points


Tourniquet (last resort)

Pressure point

A point on the body where a main artery lies near the skin surface and over a bone

11 principal pressure points

Temple


Jaw


Neck


Collar bone


Inner upper arm


Inner elbow


Wrist


Upper thigh


Groin


Knee


Ankle

3 classifications of burns

1st-redness, warmth, mild pain


2nd-red blistered skin, severe pain


3rd-destroys tissue, pain may be absent due to nerve endings being destroyed

Fractures types

Closed/simple-broken bone without break in the skin


Open/compound-break in skin possible bone protrusion

Electric shock

When you come into contact with an electric energy source

Indication of Obstructed airways

Inability to talk, grasping and pointing to throat, exaggerated breathing efforts, skin turning blue

Two types of heat related injuries

Heat exhaustion


Heat stroke

Heat exhaustion

Disturbance of blood flow to the brain, heart, lungs.


Skin is cool, moist, clammy


Pupils dilated


Sweating profusely

Heat stroke

Caused by breakdown of the sweating mechanism of the body


Hot/dry skin


Uneven pupil dilation


Weak rapid pulse

Cold weather injuries (3)

Hypothermia


Superficial frostbite


Deep frostbite

Hypothermia

Cooling of the body caused by low or rapidly falling temperature, cold moisture, snow or ice. Victim may appear pale and unconscious. May even look dead. Breathing is slow and shallow, pulse faint. Arms and legs=stiff

Superficial frostbite

Ice crystals form in upper skin layers after exposure to 32 degrees or lower

Deep frostbite

Ice crystals form in the deeper tissues after exposure to 32 degrees or lower

Shock

Life threatening condition where the body suffers from insufficient blood flow

Types of shock (5)

Septic


Anaphylactic


Cardiogenic


Hypovolemic


Neurogenic

Septic shock

Bacteria multiples in blood and releases toxins.


Common causes: pneumonia, intra abdominal infection, meningitis

Anaphylactic shock

Sever hypersensitivity or allergic reaction

Cardiogenic shock

Heart is damaged and unable to supply blood to body

Hypovolemic shock

Sever blood and fluid loss, makes the heart unable to pump enough blood to body

Neurogenic shock

Caused by spinal cord injury

CPR stands for

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

C/A/B

Circulation


Airway


Breathing
