Book Review: First Aid

  After years, or even decades, have passed since someone completed a first-aid training course, it is certainly difficult to know and recall matters such as how to create a stable recovery position, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and wound dressing. But nothing is as unpleasant as being unable to help others in emergency situations. In everyday life we encounter many of these emergency incidents—on the street, in road accidents, at the workplace, while doing housework, even during leisure-time recreation. The First Aid training booklet, by bringing together text and images, offers a general overview of the topic of first aid. [caption id="attachment_3722" align="aligncenter" width="379"] "First Aid in illness and Injury"[/caption] In the first two chapters of the book, information is given regarding the introductory fundamentals of first aid: In the first chapter, with comprehensive and essential pointers, readers become familiar with the concepts and aims of first aid, as well as the responses a volunteer should perform. In the second chapter, ideas are presented for caring for and attending to the injured person. The remaining chapters are structured around the following material: - After a brief explanation of the structure and function of particular organs of the body, we will address the causes of dysfunction in the relevant organs and the dangers these dysfunctions entail. - Features for diagnosis and taking action to help are named, which are in principle necessary and appropriate for all the disorders mentioned. - Detailed explanations regarding injury situations, the emergency incidents most likely to occur, images of illnesses, how to diagnose an illness, and in addition the necessary actions when incidents occur, conclude each chapter. Certainly this book cannot and should not replace participation in first-aid training classes. Truly mastering each of the procedures requires practical exercises under the supervision of experienced trainers. It is a pleasure that, in addition to following first-aid training courses and expanding and renewing educational content, the presented book may also serve as a motivation to participate once again in the relevant training courses...     https://irannashr.com/main/product/%da%a9%d9%85%da%a9-%d9%87%d8%a7%db%8c-%d8%a7%d9%88%d9%84%db%8c%d9%87/
