Just learned this just in case

@Midgar88 4 года назад

Unfortunately now days we are supposed to put them in the recovery position (at least in Australia). I believe the argument is if they are choking it helps which is fair but then you risk spinal damage. I prefer this method and just monitoring ventilation then last resort recovery position.

@lukehoatland920 4 года назад

I go to a beach with a ton of rocks and rips. There was a spinal injury once and the lifeguards told us to hold their head still until they could get the spinal board to the water.

I was messing about with my mate at the top of the hill, and I may have pushed him down backwards. Now he has an issue with his spine, but nothing too serious I think. Now I know what to do if anything like this happens again.

What if the injured person is in a dangerous area and you have to move him/her away alone, how do you do that? How do you safely move the injured person and still keep his/her head stable?

@rtamrakar8352 5 лет назад

kington lam even I need this answer.

@archiewoosung5062 4 года назад

Carefully - and preferably with help! Try not to twist their neck or spine. Presumably only move them if they're in danger where they are or you have to move them (e.g. out of a vehicle) to give them air

@Watersolo 4 года назад

If the area is determined to be dangerous even for the primary responder then it’s better to either make it non-dangerous or try ur best to maintain their spine and head posture. As an analogy of when to leave, if they fall in a snake pit, then leave

@graciegh0ul 4 года назад

Best thing you can do is try to keep the in the same position. If you have anything solid, flat, and reliable you could use as a stretcher I'd advise doing so. Try to get a sheet under them without moving them too much to use to slide them onto the 'strecher' without them changing position. DO NOT LET THEM SIT UP/ TURN OVER. This is what I was told to do/did after I fell 50ft and broke 3 vertibrae and I'm still here today so I can confirm this works haha.

@Rob-pg7zx 3 года назад

If someone goes into cardiac arrest, and you know they've injured their neck and spine... Would you need someone to try and keep their head still or do a jaw thrust manoeuvre whilst giving them rescue breaths and chest compressions? Or would you just discard trying to maintain their c-spine and focus on CPR only?

@mrman3232 2 года назад

In my first aid course they taught “life over limb”. So if someone has a spinal injury but requires cpr, you would do the cpr to save them even with the possibility of paralysis.

What if the casualty's head is not straight like in this video, if their head fell to the left or right? What if the causality is on their stomach?

@Rob-pg7zx 5 лет назад

In the video, the patient is in a neutral body position (flat, straight and facing upwards). But what if their head was slightly tilted to the side? Would you keep it tilted to the side or re allign?

@Victoriacityy 5 лет назад

well, that's when you need to be creative. A flat plane of wood or an entwined material like say, a sling will surely do the trick!

@TheIrishBosnian 4 года назад

I think you'd leave them as they are until paramedics arrive.

@Midgar88 4 года назад

you place in neutral. If unconscious they are supposed to be placed in the recovery position.

@kataall 4 года назад

@@Midgar88 victims with a suspected spinal injury should actually never be put in the recovery position unless they vomit & recovery position is necessary to clear the vomit. As a general rule, victims with a suspected spinal injury should be immobilized in the position found (i.e., do not move their head to neutral and do your best to hold them still in whatever position they were originally in) unless it is necessary to move them to perform lifesaving actions like CPR.

what happens if the person is hit on their back hard and falls on their tummy? do we keep them facing the ground?

@tdkage 2 года назад

Yeah, don't move them unless they're not breathing or in immediate danger.

@adriancastaneda7433 7 лет назад

what will you do if the patient who has a spinal injury bacome breathless or pulseless.. can you do cpr despite of the injury he/she has..

@wcresponder 6 лет назад

The need for oxygen and circulation takes precedence. Do CPR.

@Victoriacityy 5 лет назад

yes you can still honey, but first the folded blankets at their side must be in place

@arthurpieters2916 4 года назад

How do i get I.e. a surfer out of the water without risk of making the injury worse?

@Watersolo 4 года назад

Arthur Pieters not certified for ocean rescue nor am i an instructor but i know that you would try to get them into shallow water where you can maneuver easier. You would place your arms in a way that supports their sternum and spine. If placed correctly your hands should also support the back of the head and the jaw and you have to go under water and rotate the victim as you do this

@Dr_Footbrake 3 года назад

If you're on your own it's basically impossible. If you've got multiple people there you do whatever you can do immobilise the neck. Either way getting them out of the water is a priority as their neck injury is of no consequence if they drown!

@rebeccahall5984 7 месяцев назад

vice grip in deep water to move the casualty to the shallow and a head splint in shallow to secure, then in the shallow another lifeguard will bring a spinal board etc, and use that (following spinal board guidance). When you do the vice grip to head splint transfer, check their breathing once in a head splint. Breathing takes precedence ALWAYS. - Lifeguard :)

@kirpalsinghmalhi6703 4 года назад

If person is conscious in case of spinal injury then what will i do?? then given recovery postion or use log roll method??

@prettyboy1075 4 года назад

DO NOT MOVE THEM. Moving them can cause permanent injury or death so unless it's an immediate necessity due to emergency (for example, in a car wreck and a vehicle is risking explosion or is about to) then do so. Otherwise do not move them, jostle them, or any of that. If they become unresponsive and require CPR, that takes priority and at that point chest compressions/breaths are important.

He didnt have an xray after all, but he rested a lot. Make sure she doesnt try to do too much because that can cause a lot more pain. My dad needed a few weeks to be able to walk properly again. What height did she fall off from? Do you think she broke anything?
