Bleeding from the nose. Health care

Fundamentals of First Aid (OPMP)

With a bruised nose, and sometimes for no apparent reason, with certain infectious diseases, high blood pressure, anemia, etc., often occur nosebleeds.

First aid. First of all, it is necessary to stop washing the nose, blowing your nose, coughing up blood that enters the nasopharynx, sitting with your head down, etc., since these measures only increase the bleeding. It is necessary to plant the patient or lay him down with his head raised, free his neck and chest from restrictive clothing, give access to fresh air. The patient is advised to breathe through an open mouth. Most nosebleeds stop when the patient is calm. Even better, if possible, put a cold (blister or plastic bag with ice, cold lotions) on the bridge of the nose. Stopping bleeding in most cases helps to compress the nose for 15-20 minutes (Fig. 57), especially after the introduction of a lump of cotton wool into the nostril (you can moisten it with a solution of hydrogen peroxide). If the bleeding does not stop soon, it is necessary to call a doctor or refer the patient to a medical facility.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

The body amplifies the sound 20.04.2000

Specialists from the Center for Microelectronics at the University of Kaiserslautern have developed a new Hi-Fi loudspeaker design.

The device, called "bodybass", consists of a special electronic circuit and a powerful but compact woofer and serves as an addition to conventional headphones, allowing you to significantly expand the frequency range of sound reproduction at the expense of the lower part of the spectrum.

The speaker is mounted on the chest and the listener's lungs and bronchi are used as a resonator, and the trachea and upper respiratory tract are used as a sound transmission channel to the hearing organs.
