First aiders providing roadside casualty care must select the correct emergency intervention based on the casualty's specific injury. Match each injury condition to its appropriate immediate first aid action.
- Severe open limb wound with profuse external bleeding and no foreign object presentApply firm, continuous direct pressure over the wound using a clean pad or sterile dressing.
- Suspected spinal trauma in a conscious occupant seated inside a stable vehicleReassure the casualty and keep them supported in position without moving them unless immediate danger arises.
- Thermal skin burn caused by contact with heated vehicle componentsCool the affected area with clean, cold water for at least 20 minutes.
- Eye trauma involving fine debris from shattered window glassCover the affected eye loosely with a sterile eye pad or clean dressing without applying pressure.
Cevap
Severe bleeding matches with applying firm direct pressure; suspected spinal trauma matches with keeping the casualty supported in place unless immediate danger arises; thermal burn matches with cooling the area with clean, cold water for at least 20 minutes; eye trauma matches with covering loosely with a sterile pad without applying pressure.
Each condition matches its established UK first aid protocol: severe open bleeding requires direct manual pressure; potential spinal injuries require keeping the casualty still in the vehicle to prevent spinal cord damage; thermal burns require at least 20 minutes of cooling with clean cold water; and eye trauma requires light, pressure-free shielding.
