Shock

www.ProCPR.org - A conscious/responsive shock victim may exhibit symptoms of restlessness, fear, shivering, rapid breathing and pulse rate, sweating, nausea, vomiting, headache, and/or tiredness. They may become unresponsive and lose consciousness. An unconscious shock victim's circulatory system is failing to deliver enough oxygen, and they may therefore have a blue coloring in their nail beds, tops of hands, around the lips, and/or face. Treatment of shock begins with elevating the legs higher than the waist. You then tilt the head back and open the mouth to check breathing. If the patient is breathing less than 12 times per minute or less than 1 breath per 5 seconds, you should begin rescue breathing. To check for reasons of shock, do a secondary survey.

The real hero of all these videos is the guy in the plaid shirt.

Went into shock last week after an overdose the ambulance tried everything lifted my legs and lowered my head done nothing could barely stay awake was turning grey was rushed in and treated straight away they said I was really lucky to be alive

[@safetrax]

I am an Occupational Health & Safety Officer in South Africa and this video is very helpful. Keep up the good work !!!

[@nicholasevans9627]

This video taught me a lot. It also showed me that I am in the wrong EMT school. Took my instructor 2 lectures to explain shock in the human body. This guy does it almost 6 min. 🙁

[@cubscoutpack6776]

very good video, thank you. Using it tonight for our boy scout meeting. And for the other person who commented, it is an emergency blanket, not a space blanket. Buy at walmart for about a dollar, put in your first aid kit

[@asdfjkl7641]

The sound of the tissue paper blanket alone would wake me up lol

[@Dan-yp5tk]

Thank you so much my neighbors house burned and two of them were badly burned and went into shock

[@skylightk2129]

This was really helpful, thank you!

[@psgary6622]

When I came through a CERT refresher course with Oceanside CERT for treating shock, they gave us a simple rule: "If pale, then lift the tail. If red, elevate the head."
Glad to be watching videos like this again.
Hope I can use it somewhere without fear of being arrested.
Some places even in the U.S. lack "Good Samaritan" legal protections for rescuers & a rescuer often faces stiffer penalties for helping out than those who cause the emergency!

[@savannahparler4]

I like to help with you sir

We do not "Warm the Body" if we did it would cause the blood vessels to dilate and worsen the condition. We do however cover the body to prevent it from loosing additional heat because as heat is lost so is the ability for blood to clot but we don't want to warm the body.

Sorry, how does one knows if that injured person is having slow capillary refill? By looking at the colour of the nails?

[@johnandrehenson9608]

Very useful, thanks

[@tristanwellingz]

@MrQuackism You squeeze the fingernails, (test it on yourself) They will go white as blood is forced out. When you remove pressure, then the red colour should rush back into them (with the blood). If the blood takes a long time to refill (capillary refill) ie. The red doesnt return, or the nailbeds are blue/grey. Those are the symptoms of shock.

[@IAmWhatICreate1999]

If the shock is cause by a condition they have would you treat it the same way?
For example, Addison's disease.
My teacher has it, if she were it go in to shock and I was around, would I do the same thing?

[@Gamedeck1]

I had a ski accident and I’m still shaking

[@justinefiona94]

I'd love to do a course in First Aid and become qualified!

[@josgr3var]

Excellent!

[@catibug7450]

listen to the guy every time he says shock

[@daanzzmeister7178]

It sounds like he's saying shack

[@janfosse2740]

Welcome to the Chicago/midwestern accent. I'd bet a million dollars this guy's from that area.

[@kevincarota9551]

You don't elevate the legs anymore because it puts pressure on the diaphragm and causes difficulty breathing

[@kevincarota9551]

"SHACK!"
