Health And Beauty
Some one has sustained an
injury. The victim turns pale,
gasps (or breath and his pulse
begins to weaken. He does not
seem to be much concerned.
What is happening to him?
Crushing injuries are usu
ally followed by shock. Fright
is the first reaction to
accidents, particularly where
a number of people are In
volved and there are mangled
bodies, crushed and splintered
bones, torn and shattered
nerves.
Severe burns, whether in
volving large areas or deep
tissues of the body, are very
apt to be followed by shock.
The temperature falls below
normal. The breathing is un
certain, accompanied by
gasps, yawns, and sighs. His
face is as pale as death. If
conscious, he keeps asking
for water. He talks rationally,
but remembers nothing about
It afterwards.
As soon as the accident oc
curs send for the doctor or
rush the patient to the hos
pital In an ambulance. Ifthere
Is a delay, then you must
know what to do In the mean
time.
Keep the sufferer quiet. Do
not allow people to rush In
chattering excitedly about the
patient. Put him on his back
with his head lower than his
feet.
Wrap him In blankets and
put hot bricks, or hot water
bottles, or any other method
most convenient at the time
for keeping the patient warm.
When he asks for water, which
he probably will do, 1 1 con
scious, give him a little hot
tea or coffee. A little cold
water may also help.
Fainting, nausea and vomit
ing are frequently followed
by unconsciousness. As a rule,
the patient does not complain
of pain. All the senses are
deadened.
The layman can follow the
above Instructions and per
haps save a life.
