How to save people in the water correctly, the right way to save people in the water

Conscious drowning, or drowning people who are unconscious but still have a heartbeat, have a relatively short period of drowning. In addition, when the airway enters the water, protective coughing expels the water, and even throat spasm completely seals the airway. In fact, the amount of water that actually enters the lungs is limited, and it may be more when you drink it in your stomach.

Overregulation of water, ignoring the important fact that drowning leads to cardiac arrest, leads to a delay in CPR, reducing the success rate of resuscitation. The main contradictions in the early stages of drowning are airway spasms and asphyxia. As the time of systemic hypoxia increases, a person who has drowned can suffer cardiac arrest.

1.First, help the person who has fallen into the water to get ashore or onto the boat. If you're not good at swimming to save people, don't blindly jump into the water to save people.

If the patient is still turning over the river and the sea, use ropes, lifebuoys, bamboo poles and other items to rescue the drowning person, if the patient is unable to struggle, it is necessary to race against time to save the person.

2.In the case of cardiac arrest, routine resuscitation is based on cardiac compressions. However, the drowning victim suffered cardiac arrest due to lack of oxygen, so the airway was opened and breathing resumed. Therefore, the process of drowning rescue is slightly different from that of regular first aid, that is, the airway is opened to restore ventilation, and then external compressions are performed.

In flood disasters, people should be rescued immediately if they are drowning, but only with the right approach can the drowning victim be successfully rescued. The specific methods of saving people in the water correctly are as follows:

If you need to enter the water, you should take off your shoes, clothes and pants, and approach the person who has fallen into the water from the back side, and take the drowning person to a safe place by side and backstroke.

In a flowing river, you should swim a little further downstream, because the person who fell into the water is also drifting down.

In case you are caught by someone who has fallen into the water, do not panic, first take off the rescued person's hand, then rescue them from behind, reach through the armpit of their left arm and grab their right hand, or grab their head from behind, and drag them to safety in a backstroke position.

Note:1The best way to get out of being held on to someone is to find a chance to catch your breath, and then you sink deeper than him, and he lets go. 2.

3.If the weight and strength of the person who fell into the water are obviously greater than their own, they must not go down to save them, and it is very likely that two people will hang together.

For those who fall into the water, they should actively cooperate with the rescue of others. The rescued person and the rescuer cooperate with each other to succeed. Here's how to fit it:

Be calm in the water, paddle your hands, observe the rescuer's life-saving artifacts, and quickly lean in.

When the rescuer swims to his side, do not hit the water or kick the water, but cooperate with the rescuer, lie on the water on his back, and the rescuer will drag himself to safety.

Don't shout or wave, conserve your strength, and wait for help is the most important thing.

Note: The rescued person must not hold on to the rescuer, and do not struggle desperately in the water, which is not conducive to lifesaving.

Pull the clothes behind your back and expose your head to the water first.

Tie someone else's clothes into a rope and let him pull her up.

Water rescue is not drowning rescue, and the principle of fierce bush should be followed.

There are four main principles of drowning rescue:

1. Shore rescue priority: "Water Lifesaving Technology" has a clear statement on the principle of lifesaving: shore rescue precedes water rescue; Group rescue is superior to individual rescue; Appliance rescue is better than hand-to-hand rescue.

There is generally no place to rely on in the water, and no matter how good the water is, there will be many hidden dangers when people enter the water to save people, and there may be a possibility that the rescuer will be taken into the water together because of the unconscious struggle for survival in the water, resulting in drowning.

2. Team rescue priority: If there is a team on the shore to divide labor, so that someone goes into the water to rescue, someone provides tools and other support on the shore, and someone calls 110 or 120** to prepare to implement first aid after going ashore, which can also greatly improve the efficiency of rescue. We must learn to make full use of teamwork, give up as a last resort, and do not rush into the water to save people alone, reluctantly, not only is it meaningless, but also counterproductive, resulting in the loss of life.

3. Tool rescue priority: When a drowning incident occurs, tools can be used to save people. Floating objects such as swimming rings, wooden strips, foam boards, and large plastic bottles are all life-saving tools.

However, it is also necessary to use tools correctly to avoid causing a lot of unnecessary injuries, such as hitting the drowning person when using wooden sticks to help rescue, which will cause harm to the life of the drowning person.

4. Call for help and call the police first: when saving people, don't over-publicize the behavior of blindly sacrificing yourself to save others, and don't kidnap others morally. Shout for help, ask the people at the scene for help with rescue tools, call 110 or 120 for help, and ask for help from professionals, instead of relying on their own experience to blindly command and be in a hurry, so as not to miss the first aid time, and to carry out truly meaningful drowning rescue.

Drowning rescue is a very professional science.

Without professional training, it is generally not recommended to rush into the water to save people.

It's not a moral issue, it's a technical issue.

It's hard to protect yourself, how can you save others?

If you encounter a drowning person, it is recommended:

1. Cry out for help and ask for help.

2. If the shore is relatively close, immediately throw a bamboo pole, rope and other objects at the source of the drowning swimmer and drag him ashore, which is the best method.

If you are in a hurry, you have to go into the water.

The recommendations are as follows: 1. Approach from behind the drowning person.

2. It is very important to comfort the drowning person first, calm his emotions, cooperate with the rescue, and don't arrest people indiscriminately.

3. Absolutely prevent the drowning person from being in a hurry, and hold on to the rescuer, so that both people are in danger.

4. After approaching from behind the drowning person, hook the drowning person's neck or chest with one hand, and swim the water shallow with the other hand, don't let the drowning person catch you.

5. There is no problem for the drowning person to drink a few sips of water, but it is important to calm him down and cooperate with the rescue.

In short, only by ensuring one's own safety can it be possible to talk about saving others.
