Emergency2003
The proper way to handle a medical emergency is to activate emergency medical services by calling for help using a local emergency telephone number, such as 911 in Canada or the United States, 999 in the UK, 112 in most of continental Europe, 119 in South Korea and Japan, 000 in Australia and 111 in New Zealand. Operators will generally require the caller's name and location and some information on person that is being called about (level of consciousness, injuries, name if known, chronic medical illnesses if known). But sometimes everything will happen in seconds and in this point some small hints will be helpful to save life.

has added a new journalAmong the more common biting and sometimes bloodsucking insects in the United States are sand flies, horseflies, deerflies, mosquitoes, fleas, lice, bedbugs, kissing bugs, and certain water bugs. The bites of these insects may be irritating because of the components of their saliva. Most bites result in nothing more than a small, red, itchy bump. Sometimes, a person develops a large sore (ulcer), with swelling and pain. The most severe reactions occur in people who are allergic to the bites or who develop an infection after being bitten.
The bite should be cleaned, and an ointment containing a combination of an antihistamine, an analgesic, and a corticosteroid may be applied to relieve itching, pain, and inflammation. For reducing the inflammation using topical ice or some coolers will make a relief effect. People with multiple bites can take an antihistamine by mouth. People who are allergic to the bite should seek medical attention immediately or use an emergency allergy kit containing a preloaded syringe of epinephrine

has added a new journalThe story of a Western New York teenager and a nurse who saved eachother's lives, seven years apart, has many questioning if this was more than chance.
Penny Brown saved Kevin Stephan's life seven years ago on an Amherst baseball diamond. Kevin had been accidentally hit in the chest with a bat, and his heart stopped. Penny happened to be at that game and performed C.P.R. on Kevin.
One week ago, Penny began to choke while having lunch with her family at the Hillview Restaurant in Depew, where Kevin happens to work. A junior firefighter, he is trained in first aid and successfully performed the Heimlich Maneuver on Penny.
Chance? Or is there more to this story?
"It's pretty extraordinary," Penny said.
Kevin said the experience has strengthened his faith.
"I do believe that there was a higher power that set this up," he said.
Dr. Phil Stevens, Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University at Buffalo said it is natural for people to search for deeper meaning in such cases.
"I've heard people talk about divine intervention, providence, cosmic connections, fate, and so on, and cultures all over the world use these concepts to explain what others, including me, are statisfied with explaining with principals of chance and coincidence," Dr. Stevens said. He added, "I thought it was a terrific story. It was inspirational."
Kevin said the experience, though it has changed his outlook on life, has not changed his plans for the future. The Lancaster High School junior wants to study meteorology at Brockport, and also serve in the U.S. Navy.

has added a new journalFor an infant, the Heimlich maneuver is not performed. Instead, the infant is turned face down, the chest resting on the rescuer's hand, with the head lower than the body. The rescuer then strikes the infant between the shoulder blades 5 times using the heel of the hand (back blows). The strikes should be firm but not hard enough to cause injury. The rescuer then checks the mouth, removing any visible objects. If the airway remains blocked, the rescuer turns the infant face up with the head down, thrusts his second and third fingers inward and upward on the breastbone 5 times (chest thrusts), then checks the mouth again.

has added a new journalManeuvers to relieve choking are frequently life saving. Adults most often choke on a piece of food, such as a large piece of meat. Infants do not have well-developed swallowing reflexes and may choke if given small, rounded foods such as peanuts or hard candies. Children, especially toddlers, also may choke on toys, coins, and other inedible objects that they place in their mouth.
Coughing may be the first symptom and is often so severe that the person cannot ask for help. The person may grasp both hands near the throat. Breathing and speaking can become weak or stop. There can be high-pitched or snoring sounds. The person can turn blue, have a seizure, or faint
First-Aid Treatment
Treatment for a person who is choking takes precedence over calling for emergency medical care.
Performing the Heimlich Maneuver
The rescuer encircles the person's abdomen. With one hand, the rescuer forms a fist and clasps the other hand around the fist. The rescuer places the hands halfway between the breastbone and navel and thrusts the hands inward and upward.
A strong cough often expels the object from the airway. A person with a strong cough should be allowed to continue coughing. A person who can speak normally usually still has a strong cough. If a person who is choking cannot cough, the Heimlich maneuver should be performed. The Heimlich maneuver produces increased pressure in the abdomen and chest, which expels the object.
If the person is conscious, the rescuer approaches from behind, then circles his hands around the person's abdomen. The rescuer forms a fist, with the thumb pointing inward, and places it between the breastbone and navel, toward the person. The other hand is then placed firmly over the fisted hand. The hands are then thrust inward and upward forcefully, 5 times in succession. Less force should be used if the person is a child. Series of thrusts should be repeated until the object is expelled. If the person loses consciousness, the rescuer should stop the thrusts.
If the person loses consciousness, steps are taken to open the airway and provide artificial respiration . Failure of the chest to rise indicates that the airway is still blocked. The rescuer checks the airway for, and removes, visible objects. If none are found, the rescuer inserts his finger into the person's mouth to find and remove any hidden objects present. Artificial respiration is then resumed.
