The first step: let the child calm down.
When you find that your child is suffocating, you should first calm down and avoid panic and anxiety. If the child can cough or talk, it means that the respiratory tract is not completely blocked and can wait for rescue; If the child can't cough or talk, and his face is cyanotic, he needs immediate first aid.
You can call the emergency number or ask people around you for help. At the same time, find a nearby doctor or nurse as soon as possible, so as to carry out preliminary first aid before the rescue arrives. For children, you can pick up their bodies, make them face down, and then beat their backs repeatedly with your palms.
Step 2: Check the child's condition.
After the first aid, check the child's condition. If the situation still doesn't improve, you need to continue to give first aid until help comes. Teachers need to master this skill skillfully, so that they can deal with the child's suffocation in time and ensure the child's life safety. At the same time, it is also necessary to publicize this skill to parents in order to carry out first aid at home.
Acute airway foreign body obstruction is not uncommon in life, because patients can't breathe after airway obstruction, and may die unexpectedly due to lack of oxygen. Heimlich maneuver, also known as Heimlich maneuver, was invented by American doctor Mr. Heimlich.
In 1974, he first successfully rescued a patient who was suffocated by food blocking the respiratory tract. Since then, this method has been widely used around the world, saving countless patients, including former US President Ronald Reagan, former new york Mayor Ed, and famous actress Elizabeth Taylor. So this rule is called "the embrace of life".
People's lungs can be imagined as a balloon, and the trachea is the balloon's mouth. If the gas nozzle is blocked by foreign matter, you can squeeze the balloon by hand, and the air in the balloon will move upward under pressure, thus washing away the foreign matter blocking the gas nozzle. This is the physical principle of Hayden's abdominal impact method.
