Basic life support - represents the measures taken by the rescuer to ensure the vital functions of the victim without the help of medical equipment and aims to ensure a minimum of oxygenation of the brain in order to prevent irreversible brain damage.

THE CHAIN ​​OF SURVIVAL

  • The "Chain of Survival" concept represents the vital steps that must be followed for a successful resuscitation.
  • This "chain" consists of 4 links: Quick access to 112, SVB   quick, quick defibrillation, SVA quick.
  • Immediate recognition of the emergency and call for qualified help (112).
  • Starting resuscitation maneuvers as quickly as possible.
  • Defibrillation as quickly as possible.
  • Ensuring adequate advanced life support.
  • Between these links there must be very good communication for resuscitation to be successful.

THE RISKS OF THE SAVIOR

Before approaching a victim, the rescuer must ensure that there is no imminent danger from the surrounding environment.

Environmental risks: traffic, unstable constructions, electricity, gas, water, toxic substances.

Risks related to the victim: contact with communicable diseases, poisoning.

Technique-related risks: use of the defibrillator, use of sharp instruments.
