Study Notes
Aviation First Aid
- Primary Purpose of First Aid: Provide emergency treatment for sudden illness or injury until professional help arrives.
- Medical Clearance Form: Required when a passenger cannot sit upright.
- Medical Diversion Triggers: Continuing unconsciousness (over 5 minutes), severe unrelieved pain, impending childbirth (contractions), and other serious conditions.
- Hypoxia: Mild symptoms are not typically a reason for immediate medical diversion.
- Basic Life Support (BLS) Sequence (DRABCD): Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Defibrillation
CPR and Specific Cases
- CPR for Pregnant Women: Place hands slightly higher on the chest and tilt the body slightly to the left during compressions.
- Choking Adult (Conscious): Heimlich maneuver (5 times, alternating with 5 sharp back blows).
- Anaphylaxis: Difficulty breathing, swelling, and rash; immediate medical diversion needed.
- AED Location: Left-hand bin forward of the cabin.
- Pneumothorax (Collapsed Lung): Administer oxygen and monitor breathing as first step.
Other Medical Emergencies
- Epipen Administration: Inject into the thigh at a 90-degree angle.
- CPR Compression-to-Breath Ratio (Adult): 30:2.
- Bag-Valve Mask (BVM): Used for manual ventilation of an unconscious passenger.
- Chest Compressions (Adult): 5-6 cm deep, 100-120 per minute.
- Unconscious Choking: 30 chest compressions, then 2 rescue breaths immediately.
- Hypoxia Treatment: Administer oxygen and monitor the passenger.
- Casualty Assessment (SAMPLE): Checking for current medications.
- Fainting (Recovery): Lay the passenger down, raise their legs, and loosen tight clothing.
Medical Diversion and Patient Considerations
- Unconsciousness Duration for Diversion: 5 minutes.
- Hypoglycemia Symptoms: Pale, sweaty skin, confusion, faintness.
- AED Pad Placement (Child): One on the chest, the other below the left collarbone.
- Severe Allergic Reaction: Administer Epipen, monitor breathing, check pulse.
- Rautek Maneuver: Safely move an unconscious passenger to protect their spine.
- Newborn Flight Clearance: 7 days.
- AED Low Battery Indicator: Continues limited function.
- Hairy Chest Treatment: Shaving the chest before applying AED pads.
Further Procedures and Considerations
- Shock Symptoms: Cold, clammy skin, rapid pulse.
- Choking Passenger (Unconscious): Immediate chest compressions followed by rescue breaths.
- Oxygen Therapy for Decompression: Flushes nitrogen bubbles, increases oxygen levels.
- CPR Rate (Adult): 100-120 compressions per minute.
- CPR Rate (Child): 80-100 compressions per minute.
- CPR Depth (Child): 1/3 chest depth
- Asthma Attack: Administer inhaler, assist with oxygen if needed.
- DRABCD Procedure: Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Defibrillation.
- Choking - Conscious (Back Blows): Provide 5 sharp back blows.
- Death Onboard: Report to captain and secure the body.
- Pregnant Passenger in Shock: Tilt slightly left; administer oxygen.
- Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Keep the passenger seated and calm; elevate the affected leg.
Specific Scenarios and Actions
- Medical Report Location: Sealed envelope in the flight deck.
- Passenger with Head Injury and Medical Clearance: Medical clearance needed.
- Stretcher Passenger Accommodation: Remove rows of seats.
- Passenger with Anaphylaxis Priority: Administer Epipen, provide oxygen.
- Oxygen Requirement: Shortness of breath, confusion, bluish skin.
- SAMPLE Acronym: Extra information about recent events is an example of an “E” element.
- Fainting (Conscious): Lay flat, raise legs; loosen clothing
- Pulse Check: Carotid artery in the neck is a reliable location.
- Rescue Breaths (Child): Use the head-tilt, chin-lift technique; ensure inflation.
- AED Advice (“No Shock Required”): Continue chest compressions.
- Pulse Check (Newborn): Brachial artery.
- Imminent Birth: Contractions less than 10 minutes apart, water breaking.
- Disruptive Passenger: Second warning card, may use handcuffs.
- Infant Chest compressions: Middle of the chest, using 2 fingers.
