urgent!What should I do if the heartbeat is stopped?Look at "help"

Recently, in a badminton hall in Jiading, Shanghai, Mr. Zhang, 41, suddenly fainted on the ground after playing a ball, and his heartbeat stopped, and the situation was very critical.

Fortunately, a doctor happened to be playing next to him. After discovering this situation, he immediately performed a cardiopulmonary resuscitation to Mr. Zhang.

The staff of the stadium also quickly brought the AED automatic body tremor to help the doctor continue to rescue Mr. Zhang until the 120 ambulance arrived. After the doctor's first aid, Mr. Zhang eventually escaped the danger.

As people's work pressure is getting bigger and increasingly irregular, emergencies like Mr. Zhang are becoming more and more common. According to the "2016 China Cardiopulmonary Revolution Expert Consensus", there are about 544,000 people in my country each year. Cardiac arrests occur, and most of the sudden death is related to the cardiac arrest.

Once the heart suddenly stops beating, if the 4-6-minute gold rescue period fails to be effectively intervened, patients will easily die.

Heartbeat stopped

What do you do?

For the cardiac arrest, all the ways of rescue are to form a temporary artificial cycle and artificial respiration first to ensure the blood and oxygen supply of the important organs of the rescuers, and then strive to let the rescuer recover the autonomous cycle of the heart, and and and and and. Restore autonomous breathing and recovery consciousness.

For the live rescue of the cardiac arrest, the most important way for the medical community is CPR, that is, cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The specific method requires professional training. Here is a brief summary (hereinafter the adult standard):

1. Determine the patient's consciousness, breathing, and pulse. If the patient has no response, unconsciousness, and no pulse, you should immediately call the 120 emergency phone call for help, and let the people around you help look for AED (automatic body tremor);

2. Make the patient lying on your back on a safe and hard plane, and implement the chest compression at the dot of the double nipple connection, the frequency of 100 ~ 120 times/min, the depth of 5 ~ 6cm;

3. Press every 30 times to give manual breathing twice.

4. The process of cycle is not present until the patient resumes autonomous breathing or medical staff.

Note: The above is a brief step. You must go to the first aid training to master all the details, but don’t think you can see it ...)

What is AED?

How to use?

You may have noticed that whether it is the rescue of Mr. Zhang or the tutorial of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, it mentioned a very important device -AED.

what is it? how to use? Where can we find when we encounter emergencies?

AED is a "defibrillation artifact" designed for non -professional medical staff. It is generally equipped with a large place with large traffic in shopping malls, subways, railway stations, and bus stations in large and medium -sized cities. AED is mostly placed in the stand -up storage cabinet or wall -hung cabinet, and the cabinet door has an eye -catching red lightning heart -shaped icon.

To turn on the power switch of the machine, all operations will be equipped with voice prompts. Artificial operations only need to stick electrode and button, but the electrode pads of adults and children are different. You need to carefully follow the AED icon.

Precautions for AED:

1. Observe whether the environment is safe, including the rescue object and whether the environment is too humid;

2. Do not touch the rescue object when discharging, and after discharge, you should continue to press the chest with the AED electrode patch.

When using AED to shock patients, the body may twitch, don't be afraid, this is normal.

If you have the opportunity, it is recommended that everyone should participate in some first aid training on the spot, so that they can better master first aid skills. When the ambulance cannot arrive in time, maybe they can save a life.
