Clean the wound with soap and water and seek medical attention, as human bites can introduce harmful bacteria.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, making it extremely dangerous.

If a person is unable to speak or cough, perform the Heimlich maneuver (abdominal thrusts) to help expel the obstruction.

For mild allergic reactions, an antihistamine like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can help reduce symptoms.

Keeping the head and neck still is crucial to prevent further spinal damage.

If someone is choking and unable to breathe, the first step is to ask if they need help. If they cannot respond, perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver).

Unlike heat exhaustion, heat stroke causes hot, dry skin and confusion, and is a medical emergency.

Installing carbon monoxide detectors and ensuring proper ventilation can prevent dangerous CO buildup.

CPR should be stopped only when the person starts breathing normally, emergency responders arrive, or you are too exhausted to continue.

Never remove an embedded object from a wound. It may be stopping severe bleeding. Apply pressure around the object and seek emergency care.

Inhaling toxic fumes can cause serious respiratory issues, and the first step is to move the victim to fresh air.

An AED is used when a person is unresponsive and has no pulse. It delivers a shock only if needed.

Diabetic emergencies can cause confusion, dizziness, sweating, and shakiness due to abnormal blood sugar levels.

If you suspect a heart attack, the first step is to call 911 immediately. Early treatment can prevent serious damage or death.

Pinching the nostrils and leaning forward helps stop bleeding while preventing blood from flowing into the throat.

Carbon monoxide poisoning prevents oxygen from binding to red blood cells, leading to suffocation and organ failure.

CPR is only performed if a person is unresponsive AND not breathing. If they are breathing, monitor them until help arrives.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is life-threatening, and the first step is to move the victim to fresh air immediately.

Applying firm, direct pressure is the most effective way to stop bleeding from a deep laceration.

To check if someone is breathing, look for chest movement, listen for breath sounds, and feel for air movement on your cheek.
