First Aid in Case of Electric Shock
DO NOT TOUCH THE VICTIM WITH YOUR BARE HANDS until the circuit is
broken. SWITCH OFF. If this is not possible, PROTECT YOURSELF with DRY
insulating material and pull the victim clear of the conductor.
If breathing has stopped, indicated by unconsciousness, lack of respiratory
movements and a ‘blue’ look to cheeks, lips, ears and nails, START
RESUSCITATION AT ONCE.
EMERGENCY RESUSCITATION – THE EXPIRED AIR METHOD
(Approved by the Royal Life Saving Society)
1. If possible, lie the victim on his back with his head slightly higher than
his feet. Clear the mouth and throat of any obvious obstruction.
2. Kneel on one side of the victim, level with his head. LIFT THE JAW
AND TILT THE HEAD BACK AS FAR AS POSSIBLE (Figs. 1a and 1b)
3. One of the following may happen:
a. Breathing may begin and consciousness
returns.
b. Breathing may begin but consciousness NOT
returns. Turn the victim on his side and
ensure that the airway is kept clear.
c. Breathing may return but be NOISY which
means that the airway is not fully clear. Try to
clear the airway.
4. IF THERE NO SIGN OF BREATHING:
a. Check that the head is still tilted back.
b. Take a deep breath.
c. Pinch the victim’s nose and blow firmly into
his mouth (Fig. 2). As you do, the chest will
RISE.
d. Turn your head away and take another
breath, watching for the chest to FALL (Fig.
3).
5. Start with four quick breaths and then continue with
one breath every five seconds (i.e. 12 times a
minute). This should be continued until the victim
revives or a doctor certifies death.
6. As consciousness returns the victim will start to breathe on his own,
and a ‘pink’ color replaces the ‘blue’ look: this is the time to stop
resuscitation. Continue to hold his chin up and so keep the airway
clear.
7. In the case of injuries to the mouth, it may be necessary to use
mouth-to- nose resuscitation. Seal the victim’s mouth with your cheek
and blow firmly into his nose, proceeding as above.
