Actions of the defectoscopist to provide first aid to the injured 4.6.1. electrical injury In case of electric shock, first of all, it is necessary to stop the current (turn off the voltage, cut the wire), while observing safety measures and not touching the victim with bare hands while he is under the influence of current. In the event of a high-voltage current or lightning strike, the victim, despite the absence of signs of life, should immediately do artificial respiration and at the same time heart massage. Artificial respiration and heart massage are done until natural breathing is restored, or until the arrival of a doctor. After the victim regains consciousness, it is necessary to apply a sterile bandage to the place of the electric burn and take measures to eliminate mechanical damage (bruises, fractures) that may occur during a fall. The victim of electrical injury, regardless of his state of health and the absence of complaints, should be sent to a medical institution. 4.6.2. Mechanical injury When receiving a mechanical injury, it is necessary to stop the bleeding, treat the wound with hydrogen peroxide, and apply a bandage. If a tourniquet is applied, it is necessary to record the time of its application. The tourniquet can be left on for two hours in the warm season, and in the cold - one hour. In case of fractures, it is necessary to apply a splint that fixes the immobility of the damaged parts of the body. To do this, you can use boards and a bandage. With open fractures, it is necessary to bandage the wound before applying the splint. When sprained, apply a pressure bandage and a cold compress to the sprain. In case of dislocations, the limb is immobilized in the position it took after the injury, a cold compress is applied to the joint area. With all types of mechanical injuries, the victim must be taken to a medical facility. 4.6.3. Thermal burns For first-degree burns (only redness and slight swelling of the skin are observed), the burned area should be moistened with a strong solution of potassium permanganate. For second-degree burns (fluid-filled blisters form), a sterile dressing should be applied to the burnt area. It is forbidden to lubricate the burned area with fat and ointments, open or pierce blisters. In case of severe burns, a sterile bandage should be applied to the burned area and the victim should be immediately sent to a medical facility. Do not lubricate the burnt place with fat or ointments, tear off parts of clothing that are burnt to the skin. The burnt person must be given plenty of hot tea. 4.6.4. Acid and alkali burns In case of acid burns, the burned area of the body should be washed with a weak solution of baking soda. In the absence of drinking soda, it is necessary to pour plenty of clean water on the burnt body. In case of burns with caustic alkalis, the burnt area of the body should be washed with water acidified with acetic or citric acid, or washed with clean water, abundantly watering the burned area. Apply an antiseptic dressing to the burned area of the body and send the victim to a medical facility. 4.6.5. Poisoning In case of poisoning with poor-quality food products, it is necessary to induce artificial vomiting in the victim and rinse the stomach, allowing him to drink a large amount (up to 6-10 glasses) of warm water, tinted with potassium permanganate, or a weak solution of baking soda. After that, give milk and give 1-2 tablets of activated charcoal to drink. In case of acid poisoning, it is necessary to thoroughly rinse the stomach with water and give the victim enveloping agents: milk, raw eggs. In case of gas poisoning, the victim must be taken out of the room to fresh air or a draft should be arranged in the room by opening windows and doors. When breathing and cardiac activity stop, it is necessary to start artificial respiration and heart massage. In all cases of poisoning, the victim must be sent to a medical facility. 4.6.6. Eye injury In case of eye injuries with sharp or piercing objects, as well as eye injuries with severe bruises, the victim should be urgently sent to a medical institution. Objects that get into the eyes should not be removed from the eye, so as not to further damage it. A sterile bandage should be applied to the eye. If dust or powder gets into the eyes, rinse them with a gentle stream of running water. In case of chemical burns, it is necessary to open the eyelids and rinse the eyes abundantly for 10-15 minutes with a weak stream of running water, after which the victim should be sent to a medical facility. In case of eye burns with hot water, steam, eye rinsing is not recommended. The eyes are covered with a sterile bandage and the victim is sent to a medical facility. 5.
