on-site first aid measures for comatose patients

coma is a critical illness. coma patients often suffer from loss of consciousness and loss of normal responses to various stimuli. first aid for comatose patients, in addition to some simple on-site first aid, must promptly send the patient to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

on-site first aid measures for comatose patients include: timely removal of foreign bodies in the respiratory tract, placing the patient in a lateral position, and timely inhalation of oxygen.

the main measures for caring for comatose patients include:

1. closely monitor the patient’s vital signs and keep detailed records. if any abnormality occurs, notify the doctor promptly.

2. ensure the respiratory tract is unobstructed and provide timely care such as sputum suctioning.

3. turn over frequently to prevent bedsores.

4. we must actively prevent respiratory tract infections and avoid accumulation of pneumonia after long-term bed rest.
