Don't have any medical background. Not planning on becoming a paramedic or something. I'm just watching these videos in case. If I can ever save someone's life someday by watching these, I'd have no regrets. Or if an opportunity doesn't come, even better. At least no one's life would be in danger.
Aside of the very clear and easy to follow explanations, I really appreciate how gentle his voice and the way he talks to the patient. He always asks before doing the procedure. I have experienced being treated by the emergency responders and I really appreciate their patience and gentleness to their patients.
I have hard time understanding him..i am Russian, not a native speaker myself, but i Don't have an accent and what he's saying is not clear because of the accent, both in pronunciation and intonation
Biggest issue I had when a someone cut themselves badly in a public place was other people panicking. A relative made big fuss and demanded that I do lots of different irrelevant and distracting things. Some advice on dealing with that would really help. Telling them to sit down and shut up is just going to make them angry.
Give them a simple task and include them in the treatment if that is possible. Idk if you are professonial or civilian but paramedics in my country do this. Sometimes if the situtation demands it the sot down and shut up is the only thing you can do
A good technique is to try to involve them as a helper, for example did they witness the accident and can they help establish the mechanism of injury? In the video you could ask them to get the chair and to help raise the patient's legs on to it. After that ask them to fetch any medication that the patient is taking, and finally ask them to go and pack an overnight bag in case the patient requires a stay in hospital.
Gupta nag Haha.... sprained ankle and when ambos pick them up the Cas is in a spinal collar, IV fluids... but yes as 1st responders they do a GREAT role...
Where I work only medically trained professionals can treat injury. It is always 999 but very helpful to know what can be done whilst waiting within the role remit.
The work you're doing here is marvelous. I'm quite new to this so pardon my question: Could there please be more clarification on when there's an object in the wound, because it seems most part of the video displayed applying direct pressure if there's no object?? Thank you very much. God bless you all!
If you have bandages available, place two of them, rolled up, on either side of the object. Take a third and wrap it around the object and bandages. Call an ambulance. If you do not have bandages, pressure on either side of the object is needed and then calling the ambulance and waiting. Raise the legs as usual if they are uninjured. I hope this helped. Any more questions do ask.
Presumably don't attempt to apply a bandage if you've had to leave a foreign object in the wound; but does that mean you're going to have to keep applying pressure manually?
Hi, I am really interested in becoming a Paramedic, but the problem is that I don't have any science qualification. I am currently studying A level course and resetting my English and Maths, but I can also do an adult learner course, like Scienve, but which one shall I do? Please help me with it! Thanks!
Hi there, the College of Paramedics has lots of useful info about how to become a paramedic: www.collegeofparamedics.co.uk/how_to_become_a_paramedic Good luck with your studies!
Good video but people should not get hung up about a clean dressing. Use whatever is at hand and stop the bleeding asp . The wound will be cleaned and if appropriate antibiotics given at the hospital.
If a person have bleeding due to cut what we Will do reassure the Patient or place patient in recovery position after applying pressure and Evaluating ?
Alessandra Cortis a tourniquet is not something you find in an every day first aid kit so wouldn’t always be available. Also they’re not used in first aid training as incorrect use could cause further damage
I’m sure the use of one to stop someone bleeding out has got to be better than not doing anything , military now use them on general issue , I believe the thought that they do damage has been turned around more benefit than harm
@@eimiajillil4716 They are very recommended. Do some research on the Stop the Bleed initiative in the USA. I am an instructor for the American College of Surgeons: Committee on Trauma. If someone has arterial hemorrhage on an extremity, there is no other way besides a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. Direct pressure is not good enough. It USED to be belived that tourniquets would cause more harm. Studys have no shown it improves patient outcomes if they get to a hospital afterwards within 6 hours.
First of all there’s no need to clean if it’s it’s a SEVERE bleed because no matter how much you clean it it’s just gonna keep on bleeding and you’re wasting time because you need to apply pressure as soon as you can. Second of all we don’t use antiseptic in first aid because there’s no need antiseptic is used for infections if somebody has a fresh severe bleed there won’t be an infection plus it will hurt the casualty plus people of different religious backgrounds might not allow antiseptic on their skin because antiseptic is alcohol.
Thank you so much for the video! This is really life saving so I try to learn by watching your videos 😄 But I have a question. If there is an object in the wound, and it's dangerous to remove it, should the first-aider still dress the wound by covering both the injury and the object?
Hi there~ there is a type of bandaging called the tent bandage method. You place two rolled up bandages either side of the object to keep it in place then wrap the wound with the third bandage to cover both the support bandages and object. I'm no profession so would be worth doing some of your own research first. Good luck!
Now do you immediately want to get someone to lay down and raise the legs regardless if you think they are in shock or not? Or is it better to only use this procedure if they appear to have the symptoms of shock?
I'd say it's always a good idea to treat for shock if you can because it can become irreversible. So don't wait for signs of shock to appear, instead anticipate them and lay them down with a blanket anyways (unless that causes their condition to become worse).
No, you would have them, or you, press both sides of the perforated skin together. Closing the wound around the object will help better than a bandage. Ideally you want to keep blood in the patient for EMS to assess the patient as experts.
Control the bleeding by pressing firmly either side of the object to push the edges of the wound together. Do not remove the object, and do not press directly on the object. To protect the wound, build up padding either side of the object, then carefully bandage over the object and pads without pressing on the object. Remember to check circulation every ten minutes. Call for emergency help, and while waiting for help to arrive, monitor the casualty’s breathing, pulse and level of response, and treat for shock if necessary.
make a triangular bandage into a shape of a doughnut and put it over the object such that the object is sticking out of the "doughnut bandage". Than, use a roller bandage to wrap around the doughnut bandage to ensure that the it stays firm. Be careful not to touch the object
n0meriesy HD No, because the dirty hand well infect the wound, so maybe get a jacket or something soft like cotton or whatever and then call 999, or 112

Hi Ciana, thank you for your comment and apologies for the delay in coming back to you. Tissues are not ideal because they tend to disintegrate when wet - but If you’ve got nothing else they are better than nothing! Hope that helps.
Thanks I accidentally kinda stabbed my finger while I was cutting something It’s bleeding like a impressive amount so I’m trying to search videos how to stop bleeding
I came watching this on 2024 when I came across a video showing that we need to stuff clothes into the wound untill it is really deep for severe wound. That not convincing because it looks painful. Can someone tell me , is it true??
Tho if your 81 year old grandpa with stoma fell down the stairs, hit his head on a brick wall and had severe bleeding on his arms and head then what r u meant to do
This comment concerns all the St Johns videos. Surely you would want to accurately convey the information, especially in an emergency. Not to discredit the doctor in the video, but couldn't you get an actor to do this, who can pronounce words everyone can understand? This is information that needs to be understood properly.. The doc in the video, I do not doubt knows what he is trying to say, but I have had to reach just to understand. This is not his fault, but if you want every one to clearly hear what is being said, get someone who can pronounce and speak accurately.
How do you not understand him? Is it his accent? I can understand him perfectly fine. But if you find that you cannot, there are also captions for the video if required.

Tell them you are trained in first aid and you don't have time to explain what myths they believe in
Give them a simple task and include them in the treatment if that is possible. Idk if you are professonial or civilian but paramedics in my country do this. Sometimes if the situtation demands it the sot down and shut up is the only thing you can do
You need someone to call for an ambulance; the noisiest person might be the best candidate!
You give them the choice: They shut up or you walk and they deal with this themselves.
A good technique is to try to involve them as a helper, for example did they witness the accident and can they help establish the mechanism of injury? In the video you could ask them to get the chair and to help raise the patient's legs on to it. After that ask them to fetch any medication that the patient is taking, and finally ask them to go and pack an overnight bag in case the patient requires a stay in hospital.

Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos from us guys up here in Canada
Where I work only medically trained professionals can treat injury. It is always 999 but very helpful to know what can be done whilst waiting within the role remit.
Watching all these first aid videos cause of my Order of Malta test in Droghda , Ireland 😊 wish me luck
I have lost blood a lot for 4 days from my blood pressure and lost 2 bowls full
I like watching these vids cos I wanna be a doctor when I'm older
S Rahman u should study hard kido
good luck ! but don't fall in love with money
Keep following that dream
Me too! Best of luck!
This is more of a paramedic job, doctors are more in office type diagnosing and treating, paramedics deal with emergencies on field
Who else came here from the FutureLearn First Aid course? 🙌
I'm here because my second unit in PE is first aid...
I am
Now I know, it's just not me who aspires to be first aid responder.
I did
Me ✋🏾
Thanks for all your videos. Very helpful for me as a primary health care nurse

Thank you, you are a good teacher. Again, your videos are very neat and clear.

@@dianacarroll8860 a tourniquet I believe, is the last resort option if all methods of blood stopping do not work

Is the Esmarch's Tourniquet ever used to stop the bleeding?
Thanks 👍
unsterilized gloves dont prevent infection of the wound. they are only for selfprotection
How do you check for circulation whilst the nailbed is polished
If there is an object in the wound, do you still wrap it?
No, you would have them, or you, press both sides of the perforated skin together. Closing the wound around the object will help better than a bandage. Ideally you want to keep blood in the patient for EMS to assess the patient as experts.

can you please explain why did you raise her legs
You usually raise her legs when she is in shock it's so blood can easily reach the heart and other vital organs
Hope it's not late for me to become one
