What is the first aid knowledge for injured people in Subject 1?
2 Answers
When rescuing the injured, prioritize saving lives before treating injuries. More details are as follows: For victims trapped under wheels or cargo: The correct method is to attempt to move the vehicle, apply appropriate rescue techniques, and remove the cargo. For injured individuals unable to exit the vehicle on their own: Try to safely remove them from the vehicle to avoid secondary injuries. For unconscious victims: In cases of major accidents with multiple casualties requiring hospitalization, unconscious victims should be transported to the hospital first. When moving unconscious or potentially asphyxiated victims, use the lateral recumbent position. For shock victims: Implement warming measures to prevent heat loss. If a victim is not breathing, immediately perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
I remember that first aid knowledge was quite crucial when taking the written driving test (Subject 1). The main focus was learning how to handle injured people in traffic accidents. The key points are to stay calm, first ensure the scene is safe, then call 120 for help. Next, check the condition of the injured—if there's bleeding, use clean cloth or clothing to apply direct pressure on the wound to stop it; if there's a fracture, absolutely avoid moving them to prevent further injury. Also pay attention to breathing issues, such as supporting the injured person's chin to tilt their head back and keep the airway open. If their heart stops, perform CPR by pressing on the chest about 100 times per minute. This knowledge isn't just for the test—after driving for so many years, I've encountered minor accidents on the road, and knowing first aid can save lives. The key is not to panic and to stay steady with each step. It's practical to keep a small first aid kit in the car with items like bandages and gloves for emergencies. Overall, remembering these basics can make the entire driving experience more reassuring.
