OBJECTIVES ( At the end of this course, participant will be able to: Clear communication channels during coordinating responses. Control an accident scene while preventing further injury to rescuer or patient Conduct an initial and secondary assessment of patients Give proper care for common injuries and illnesses Coordinate with external medical service. Documentation and Reporting Develop and implementation where the personnel or organization able to have a well-documented ERP which consist the outline on procedure to be taken during emergency.
“The purpose of this course is to train emergency medical responders, people like you, who will often be the first trained individuals with/without a duty to provide care at the scene of an emergency. The course content and activities will prepare you to better recognize emergencies, make decisions, and provide care. This course teaches the skills you will need to manage emergency situations until more advanced medical personnel, such as EMTs and Paramedics arrives”
Definition of the term “Emergency Medical Response” Emergency Medical Responders ( EMRs ) are people who are specially trained to provide out-of-hospital care in medical emergencies, typically before the arrival of an ambulance . EMR is often the first medically trained person to arrive on the scene of an emergency EMR have the knowledge and skills necessary to provide immediate lifesaving interventions while awaiting additional emergency medical services (EMS) resources to arrive.
The Medical Emergency – roles & responsibilities Maintain your body in a healthy physical and mental condition. Maintain equipment in a ready state. Respond promptly and safely to the scene of an accident or sudden illness. Ensure the scene is safe from hazards. Protect yourself. Protect the incident scene and patients from further harm.
The Medical Emergency – roles & responsibilities Summon appropriate assistance. Gain access to patients Perform patient assessment Administer emergency medical care Provide reassurance to patients and family members Move patients only when necessary
The Medical Emergency – roles & responsibilities Seek and then direct help from bystanders, if necessary. Control activities of bystanders. Assist ERTs and paramedics, as necessary. Maintain continuity of patient care. Document you care. Keep you knowledge and skills up to date.
EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES Elements of Surveying the Scene Survey the Scene Once you recognized that an emergency has occurred and decide to act, you must make sure the scene of the emergency is safe for you, the victim/s, and any bystander/s Scene safety Mechanism of injury or nature of illness Determine the number of patients and additional resources Identify yourself as first aider and get consent to give care
The first aider is alone, CALL FIRST, that is, activate medical assistance or arrange transfer facility before providing care for: An unconscious adult victim or child 8 years old or older. An unconscious infant or child known to be at a high risk for heart problems. The first aider is alone, provide 1 minute of care, then CALL FAST for: An unconscious victim less than 8 years old. Any victim of submersion or near drowning. Any victim of arrest associated with trauma. Any victim of drug overdose. EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES
EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES CALL First and CALL Fast Activate Medical Assistance and Transport Facility In some emergency, you will have enough time to call for specific medical advice before administering first aid. But in some situations, you will need to attend to the victim first. Both trained and untrained bystanders should be instructed to Activate Medical Assistance as soon as they have determined that an adult victim requires emergency care “Call First”. While for infants and children a “Call Fast” approach is recommended.
EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES Do a Primary Survey In every emergency situation, you must first find out if there are conditions that are an immediate threat to the victims life Check for Consciousness Check for Airway Check for Breathing Check for circulation
EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES Do a Secondary Survey It is a systematic method of gathering additional about injuries or condition that may need care. Interview the victim Check vital signs Perform head-to-toe examination
UNDERSTANDING THE CHAIN OF SURVIVAL The term chain of survival provides a useful metaphor for elements of emergency cardiovascular care system-of-care concept. The chain of survival shows that actions that must take place to give the cardiac arrest victim the best chance of survival. Each link is independent, yet connected to the links before and after. If any link is broken the chance for a good outcome is decreases.

Call 911 After determining that there is an injury needing advance care; if unconscious tap and shout. 01 Question you will need to answer Nature of the emergency Where are you? How many are hurt? Ages of who is/are hurt Who are you? Has treatment started?
Begin CPR Most adult cardiac arrests (CA) victims heart is in ventricular fibrillation (VF) – Abnormal chaotic heart rhythm that prevents the heart from pumping blood. CPR will not usually stop VF but plays an important part in pushing oxygenated blood to the brain and heart and prolonging VF so that an AED will be useful. CPR can double or triple the victims survival rate For every passing minute without CPR, rate of surviving drops 7-10%. With CPR there is only a 3-4% drop each minute 02
Use an AED The use of the AED will stun the fibrillating heart, if the heart is still viable the normal pacemakers in the heart will begin firing and start a normal rhythm. If used within 5 min, chances of survival is 49 – 75%. Using an AED is simple 03
Advanced Care - EMS Response time is 7-8 minutes – CPR is extremely important. 04 Integrated post-cardiac arrest care 05

Hazards A hazard is a source or a situation with the potential for harm in terms of human injury or ill-health, damage to property, damage to the environment, or a combination of these. Two categories Health hazards : occupational illnesses Safety hazards : physical harm, injuries Hazard identification Hazard identification is part of the process used to evaluate if any particular situation, item, thing, etc. may have the potential to cause harm. The term often used to describe the full process is risk assessment: Identify hazards and risk factors that have the potential to cause harm Analyse and evaluate the risk associated with that hazard Determine appropriate ways to eliminate the hazard, or control the risk when the hazard cannot be eliminated Understanding hazards, hazard identification and management
HAZARD SYMBOLS
Hazard management Hazard management is essentially a problem-solving process aimed at defining problems (identifying hazards), gathering information about them (assessing the risks) and solving them (controlling the risks). Understanding hazards, hazard identification and management
When you have identified the hazards, you need to assess the risk created by each hazard. The risk is the likelihood that the hazard will cause injury, illness or disease in the way that it is used or occurs in the workplace, and the severity of the injury, illness or disease that may results. HAZARD MANAGEMENT STEPS Assessing the risk 02 Identifying the Hazard 01 This is the fundamental step in hazard management. SOME WAYS TO IDENTIFYING HAZARDS: Workplace inspections Incident reporting Register of injuries Consultation with employees
It is important to know if your risk assessment was complete and accurate. It is also essential to be sure that changes in the workplace have not introduces new hazards or changed hazards that were once ranked as lower priority to a higher priority. HAZARD MANAGEMENT STEPS Evaluate, Monitor and Review 04 Hazard Control 03 It is not enough to just find and rate the hazards, After founding the hazard it is important to eliminate or control the hazard before the injury or illness of people due to hazard.

Type of Medical Emergencies in the workplace
Definitions and Classification (Open & Closed) A wound is an injury, especially one in which the skin or another external surface is torn, pierced, cut, or otherwise broken. Wounds can be classified into two main types .These are open and closed wounds. In the category open and closed wounds the wounds are then summarised again into more specific categories. Traumatic Injuries Bites & Stings Allergic Reactions Gastrointestinal Problems
Open Wounds Some types of open wounds include: Incisions – caused by a clean, sharp-edge object such as a knife, a razor or a glass splinter. Lacerations – rough, irregular wounds caused by crushing or ripping forces. Abrasions (grazes) – a superficial wound in which the topmost layers of the skin are scraped off, often caused by a sliding fall onto a rough surface Puncture wounds – caused by an object puncturing the skin, such as a nail or needle. Penetration wounds – caused by an object such as a knife entering the body. Avulsion wounds – this is a wound that occurs due to the integrity of any tissue is compromised
Close Wounds Closed wounds are like open wounds and have numerous amount of types. However closed wounds have less than open. But are just as dangerous. Explained below are the main types of closed wounds: Contusions (bruise) – caused by blunt force trauma that damages tissues under the skin. Hematoma – caused by damage to a blood vessel that in turn causes blood to collect under the skin Crushing Injuries – caused by a great or extreme amount of force applied over a long period of time. Image above shows a person suffering from contusions.
Nature of the Injuries Wounds can be divided into three main groups to emphasis their seriousness, these groups are: Minor Cuts and Scrapes Puncture Wounds Major wounds
How to Treat Minor Cuts and scrapes Puncture wounds Wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water removing any foreign material, which may cause infection. Cover with a sterile bandage. Wash the wound area daily and reapply a clean dressing until it is completely healed. However when washing sterile area do not scrub as you will damage the wound more. Puncture wounds are difficult to clean. If the object has penetrated the bone, it is especially risky. Flush the area thoroughly with water, cleaning well and on a number of occasions. Elevate the wound, and if signs of infection manifest (redness, swelling, persistence pain, pus or fever), contact a health professional
How to Treat Major Wounds For severe bleeding, apply constant pressure to the wound with a sterile dressing. Hold for up to twenty minutes. If there is a foreign object in the wound don’t press directly, but apply pressure along the wound area. If broken bones or dislocations are suspected, do not move the affected limb. If you are sure there are no broken bones or dislocations, you can gently elevate and support the part while keeping pressure on it. This action should minimize bleeding. Then get Medical Help.
General ways to teat any wound The following are the 5 basic steps for treating a cut or wound : STOP THE BLEEDING CLEAN THE WOUND APPLY ANTIBIOTIC COVER THE WOUND SEEK IMMEDIATE PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ATTENTION IF THE WOND.. 01 02 03 04 05
1 2 3 4 5 STOP THE BLEEDING Apply gentle Pressure with sterile gauze or clean cloth Elevate the wound above the heart Do not lift the gauze or cloth the check if the bleeding has stopped; this can restart bleeding. If blocked spurting / continues to flow despite pressure& elevation, seek immediate professional medical assistance CLEAN THE WOUND Rinse the wound with clean water Do not use soap, iodine, alcohol or hydrogen peroxide; this can irritate the wound If dirt or debris remain in the wound after raising, use sterile tweezers to gently remove the dirt/debris; if this falls, seek professional medical attention to remove the dirt/debris APPLY ANTIBIOTIC Once the wound has stopped bleeding and has been rinsed clean, apply a thin layer of antibiotic cream or ointment to the wound. If a rash results from use of the antibiotic, discontinue use of the ointment and seek professional medical attention. COVER THE WOUND Keep the wound covered with an adhesive bandage or sterile gauze as it heals; this will keep the wound clean and prevent infection. Change the wound covering twice daily and keep the wound clean. SEEK IMMEDIATE PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ATTENTION IF THE WOND Is more than ¼ inch deep or is gasping Has a jagged edge or fat/muscle tissue is visible. Become imitated or infected (has increased redness, swelling, drainage or pain) Is deep or dirty or it has been more than 5 years since your last tetanus shot.
Signs & Systems of Wounds Redness or excessive swelling in the wound area Throbbing pain or tenderness in the wound area Red streaks in the skin around the wound or progressing away from the wound Pus or watery discharge collected beneath the skin or draining from the wound Tender lumps or swelling in your armpit, groin or neck Foul odour from the wound Generalized chills or fever
Medical Emergencies – Soft Tissue Injuries Broadly categorized as either “closed” or “open” Damage to the skin, cells and blood vessels May result in extensive injuries to the internal organs and bones
Medical Emergencies – Soft Tissue Injuries Treatment The basic care for any soft tissue injury is the proper use of wound dressings and bandages The functions of the dressings and bandages are to stop bleeding, to protect wounds from further damage, and to prevent further contamination
Fractures, Dislocations, Sprains & Strains Injuries to the bones, muscles and connective tissues result when excessive or abnormal force is applied to the musculoskeletal system There are three basic mechanisms by which this force can be applied: Direct Force Indirect Force Twisting Force Medical Emergencies
Fractures, Dislocations, Sprains & Strains It will not be your responsibility to diagnose exactly what type of injury has occurred The fact is that any painful, swollen and deformed extremity will receive the same emergency medical care Medical Emergencies
Medical Emergencies – Fractures When a bone is broken or is simply cracked Can produce severe bleeding Very painful Potential for long-term disability Classified as “open” or “closed”
Open Fracture When the skin overlying a painful, swollen and deformed extremity is broken, then the condition is termed – an open fracture Closed Fracture If there is no break in the continuity of the skin, then the condition is termed – a closed fracture Definition (Open & Closed)
Classification (Open Fracture) Type 2 Type 1 Type 3A Type 3B Type 3C
TYPE 1 (OPEN FRACTURE ) Small less than 1cm Clean puncture through which a bone spike protrudes out Minimal soft tissue damage No crushing Not comminute (low-energy fracture)
TYPE 2 (OPEN FRACTURE ) More than 1cm No skip flap Minimal soft tissue damage Moderate crushing or communication (low-energy fracture)
TYPE 3A (OPEN FRACTURE ) Large wound more than 10cm Extensive muscle devitalization High energy Comminute
TYPE 3B (OPEN FRACTURE ) Large wound Cannot be covered by soft tissue Severely comminute Extensive muscle devitalization High energy Requires a flap for bone coverage and soft tissue closure Periosteal stripping
TYPE 3C (OPEN FRACTURE ) High energy Increased risk of amputation and infection Any grade 3 with major vascular injury requiring repair regardless the wound.
Grades of soft tissue injury correlates with infection and fracture healing WHY USE CLASSIFICATIONS

General Management of wounds (All Infected Wounds and with Foreign Bodies)
Chest Injuries Open or closed All victims should have their airway, breathing, and circulation checked. A responsive victim should sit up or be placed with injures side down. In a closed chest injury, the skin is not broken Chest and Abdominal Injuries Rib fractures The upper four ribs are protected by the collarbone and shoulder blades. The lower two ribs, “floating ribs”, have freedom to move Broken ribs usually occur along the side of the chest
Recognizing Rib Fractures Sharp pain (deep breath, coughing or moving) Victim holds injured area Victim reports being hit where there is pain. Area is tender Shallow breathing Gently press inward on both sides of the chest at the same time to assess for a rib fracture. Chest and Abdominal Injuries Care for Rib Fractures Help victim find a comfortable position Stabilize the ribs with a pillow or similar object Give pain medication Seek medical care
Flail Chest Flail chest involves several ribs in the same area broken in more than one place. Paradoxical movement is when the area over the injury moves in a direction opposite to that of the rest of the chest wall during breathing. Chest and Abdominal Injuries Recognizing Flail Chest Paradoxical chest motion takes place Breathing is very painful and difficult Bruising may occur
Care for Flail Chest Support the chest Apply hand pressure Place victim on injured side with blanket underneath Monitor breathing Seek medical care Chest and Abdominal Injuries Open Chest Injuries An open chest injury is when the skin has been broken and the chest wall is penetrated
Impaled Object in the Chest An impaled object penetrates the chest wall Causes air and blood to escape into the space between lungs and chest wall Lung collapse Can lead to shock and death Chest and Abdominal Injuries Recognizing An open chest injury is when the skin has been broken and the chest wall is penetrated
