First Aid is an aid for emergency treatment of victims before help is provided by medical personnel. Injuries can occur anywhere, the location of injuries often occurs especially in the home and school environment. School-age children are a group that is vulnerable to injury, especially when entering celementary school. Injuries can become an emergency case and cause serious injuries and even death if not handled properly. To prevent injuries in children from getting worse, one of the methods that can be used to treat is the RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) method, which can first rest the injured part, apply an ice pack to reduce swelling, bandage the injured skin and elevate the injured area above the height of the heart area. First Aid community service with the RICE method at Sekolah Indonesia Singapura (SIS) is a positive activity that aims to increase children's knowledge and ability to perform first aid when injured or when children know other people are injured. The method used is counseling about first aid for injuries using the RICE method, demonstrating and distributing leaflets. The results of the analysis of children's ability to understand first aid material when injured with the RICE method before and after education is 30 (with an average pre test score of 70 and post test 100). The increase in participants' knowledge proves that with this counseling participants become more aware of what is related to first aid during injuries that can be treated with the RICE method to prevent more severe injuries.

First aid is the initial aid that is given to the sick and injured person at the site of the accident. It is a set of measures and procedures with which life is saved and prevents further deterioration of the health condition of the sick or injured person. Most often the first aid is given by persons who will found themselves at the place of the accident, and are not the healthcare workers. The timely given and proper first aid has a task: the life of the injured person to be preserved by removing the cause that can lead to death; to prevent possible complications; pain and fear to be reduced; to improve the general state of the injured; to transport the injured person to the adequate position with an appropriate motor vehicle to the first medical institutionThe school is a place where a lot of activities are performed, among which teaching, time for a break, games and socialization, becoming convenient place for accidents that happen. The injures at pre-school and school age are mostly due as a consequence of different falls during free games, excursions,outings, fights, physical and health education classes, when life threatening conditions appear,loss of consciousness,cessation of breathing and heartbeat, bleeding, shock, congestion, bone fractures, crushing, twisting, nagging, thermal injuries, injuries of parts of the body with a special treatment , different kinds of poisoning,bites by insects, appearance of allergies from various allergens e.t.c. Our goal was to determine the need for compulsory education of the teaching staff by organizing first aid courses. Methods and materials: the questionnaire survey was composed of questions in order to see which are the most common injuries, illnesses and acute conditions that teachers meet during classes, the pause for the big break , and especially the physical and health education classes .Also, through the questionnaire we wanted to get data how many teacher can give first aid and if they need additional classes and training. It was conducted to the heads of lower and upper classes in the school ,, Goce Delchev” in Shtip and the satellite school in Tri Cheshmi. Results and discussions: 21 teachers from the lower grade classes and17 teachers from the upper grade classeswere surveyed. According to the results that we obtained the teachers mostly encounter fractures of the limbs, nose bleed, head injury, stretched muscle injury (twisting) of the spinal wrist and palm fingers injury, as well as headache, epilepsy,diabetes. Of the total surveyed 38 head teachers of lower and upper classes, 27 said that they do not properly know to give first aid, and 11 said that they knew to give first aid. From all of them, 37 teachers said that they wanted to be trained for giving first aid, and only one didn’t want to be trained. Conclusion: The results of the questionnaire survey confirmed our thesis that there is a need of educating teachers for giving first aid.The constant focus of the teachers on the good health of their students is possible only if they are educated for recognizing the basic symptoms of certain diseases and giving first aid in various acute conditions and injuries.

Sports injury is a condition of damage that occurs to the muscular and skeletal systems of the body during exercise due to an accident. Some cases of injury are often ignored by athletes and assume that the injury will recover by itself, even though if the injury is not treated properly it can lead to more serious injuries and impact on the athlete's performance. Physiotherapy is a health professions that can provide assistance to injured athletes. The lack of knowledge about the handling of injuries in athletes often has an impact on the occurrence of repetitive injuries. The aim is to provide knowledge to coaches and athletes about the types of injuries, the level of injury (onset), how to reduce the risk of further injury or repetitive injury and how to overcome injuries in the field.

Data on types of community first aid use and treatment provided post-injury from many low‒middle-income countries, including India, are lacking. This cross-sectional study was conducted among children aged one month to 18 years of age, in Ujjain, India, to understand types of first aid given and health-seeking post-injury. A total of 1087 injuries in 1049 children were identified in the past year. A total of 729 (67%) injured children received first aid and 758 (70%) sought some form of health care. Children with burns received the most (86%) first aid, and most children (84%) with road traffic accidents (RTA) sought health care. Most children (52%) sought health care from a private health care facility; most children (65%) were transported to a health care facility within the golden hour. Motorbikes were the most preferred (50%) mode of transport. Only 1% of the injured used ambulance services. Commonly reported methods or substances for first aid included the use of coconut oil on wounds from falls (38%) and burns (44%), the use of antiseptic cream on wounds from RTA (31%), the application of turmeric for wounds from falls (16%), and rubbing of metal on a bitten area (47%). For most injuries, appropriate, locally available substances were used. Potentially harmful substances applied included lime, toothpaste, clay, and mud. The findings will help design community interventions to increase the provision of appropriate first aid for childhood injuries.

Modern sport is very close to injuries, which can put an athlete out of the state of high sports training for some time. In the event of an injury, the correct provision of pre-hospital care in different sports is of great importance, depending on the injury sustained. The first aid for sports injuries should be aimed primarily at reducing pain and reducing the development of swelling. Therefore, it is imperative to fix the injured limb. The arm should be suspended or bandaged to the chest with aids such as a scarf or belt. In case of injuries to the lower extremities, the leg is covered with soft objects and left in the position it is in. If there is a wound on the injured area, a sterile dressing should be applied, and in case of severe bleeding, jute should be applied. The injured person is immediately taken to hospital. Thanks to the analysis of research by domestic scientists, it is possible to identify different types of injuries that athletes face in individual and team sports. It is also possible to track the system of effective first aid methods. Knowledge of the theory and methodology of sports training, hygienic requirements for facilities, athlete's equipment, rest criteria, physiology of the body's functioning in different power zones at different stages of training is of great importance in preventing injuries during training sessions and during the competition period. Timely qualified first aid in case of injuries makes it possible to shorten the athlete's stay in hospital, reduce the duration of rehabilitation measures and accelerate the return to training sessions at the stage of physical preparation.

Musculoskeletal injuries, such as sprains, are one of the injuries that often occur in schoolchildren. This is due to a lack of information and understanding regarding first aid for injuries. Therefore, educational efforts are needed along with technological developments in order to empower students. The purpose of this service activity is to provide education to students through digital games containing the concept of first aid for musculoskeletal injuries (E-Fa Game). The method used is in the form of a pretest, providing health education using the E-Fa Game, and re-evaluating with a post-test. The results of this community service show that 83% of participants understand the procedures for first aid for extremity injuries, including resting the injured area (rest), giving ice, bandaging (compression), and elevating the injured area (elevation). Through this community service activity, it is hoped that more and more students will understand the procedures for first aid for musculoskeletal injuries, so that they will be able to become laypersons who are able to provide help in cases of injuries that occur around them.

Road traffic accidents have become an enormous global public health problem. Traffic accident injuries on highways can cause severe trauma. The death rate of the injured is very high within 30[Formula: see text]min after injury. According to statistics, about 75–95% of the people with fatal traffic injuries died before being taken to the hospital. If these casualties can be effectively treated, about 1/3 can be prevented from death. Therefore, pre-hospital first aid plays a very important role in the treatment of major traffic accident injuries. Paying attention to the pre-hospital emergency treatment is crucial to ensure the success of a major accident damage, and to improve treatment results and reduce mortality and morbidity. A good relationship between the doctor and ambulance officers is essential for efficient team work. All emergency surgical procedures in the case of severely injured patients are generally performed in accordance with the Damage Control Orthopedics (DCO) principle. In order to improve the pre-hospital rapid response and first aid capabilities, the government should establish independent trauma disciplines and trauma specialist training systems, and must build the regional trauma care system as well as the standards for graded treatment, thus establishing a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) for severe trauma. In this way, we can reduce the mortality and disability risks of severe trauma, improve the quality of patients’ life and save more lives.

Background: Because of the complex and multifaceted nature of running injuries, a multifactorial approach when investigating running injuries is required. Hypothesis: Compared with uninjured runners, injured runners would exhibit different running biomechanics, display more fatigue changes, and would run a greater weekly running volume; more injured runners would also report having a previous injury. Study Design: Prospective cohort study. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Methods: At commencement of the study, data were collected on demographics, anthropometrics, training history, previous injury history, and center-of-mass accelerations during a long-distance overground run. Participants completed weekly training diaries and were monitored for 1 year for an injury. Results: A total of 76 runners completed the study, with 39 (22 male; 17 female) reporting an injury. Compared with male uninjured runners, male injured runners were heavier and ran a greater weekly distance. Male runners (injured and uninjured) exhibited increases in mediolateral center-of-mass accelerations during the run. Compared with female uninjured runners, female injured runners were heavier, ran with longer flight times and lower step frequencies, and more of them had reported an injury in the previous year and had increased speed training in the weeks prior to injury. Over 60% of male injured runners and over 50% of female injured runners had increased their weekly running distance by >30% between consecutive weeks at least once in the 4 weeks prior to injury. Conclusion: Factors that may be related to injury for male runners include being heavier, running a greater weekly distance, and exhibiting fatigue changes in mediolateral center-of-mass accelerations. Factors that may be related to injury for female runners include being heavier, having an injury in the previous year, running with longer flight times and lower step frequencies, and increasing speed training prior to injury. Increases in weekly running distance in 1 consecutive week (particularly >30%) needs to be monitored in training, and this along with the other factors found may have contributed to injury development. Clinical Relevance: This study found that multiple factors are related to running injuries and that some factors are sex specific. The findings can aid in injury prevention and management.

ABSTRACTObjective:The aim of this study is to characterize the injury profiles and outcomes of victims of a tornado in Jiangsu Province, China.Methods:This study retrospectively investigated the clinical records of 144 patients treated at a teaching hospital due to a tornado. Each patient’s demographic data, diagnosis, injury types, causes of injury, infection status, and outcomes were all reviewed.Results:Of the 144 patients, 64 (44.4%) were male, and 80 (55.6%) were female. The patients’ ages ranged from 2 months to 94 years; 91 (63.19%) were admitted within the first 12 h after the disaster. The most frequently injured sites were the body surfaces (24.48%), followed by the limbs and pelvis (21.79%) and chest (20.3%). Soft-tissue injuries and fractures were the most frequent injuries. Traumatic brain injuries were the main causes of death. Tornado-related injuries were primarily caused by flying/falling bricks, wood, and glass. Twenty-three (15.9%) patients suffered from infections, which consisted mainly of skin/soft tissue infections and pneumonia.Conclusions:Destructive tornadoes often cause heavy casualties with little warning. Medical aid agencies must be prepared to accommodate the massive numbers of injured patients after a catastrophe. Proper triage and prompt treatment of injured victims may decrease mortality.

First aid to injure of accidents at work takes the significant place in the system of labor protection as an important element of preserving life and safety of workers who are injured or have experienced a sharp deterioration in health during working hours. Nevertheless, the legal component of first aid has not yet been worked out in detail. As shown in the article, the main problem is that first aid treatment to injure at work is not limited to labor legislation, but is also an important part of the legislation on the protection of public health, criminal law. The article offers a comprehensive, systematic look at the legal aspects of first aid treatment at work with a focus on the need for an explicit separate determination and enforcement of the legal process "empower" and "bind" in organization of the first aid treatment at the employer.

Abstract Study aim: This study aimed to determine the knowledge and skills of swimming coaches in providing first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Material and methods: The sample consisted of 59 swimming coaches who responded to non-standardized questionnaire. The collected data were processed by the statistical program IBM SPSS (20.0), using the Chi-square test with cross-tabulation, with a level of statistical significance p ≤ 0.05. Results: Obtained data showed a statistically significant difference in the knowledge of swimming coaches about first aid and CPR in relation to coaching experience (p = 0.025); in the knowledge of providing first aid and CPR between coaches who have a certificate of first aid and CPR and those who do not (p = 0.006) and in first aid and CPR knowledge between coaches who have renewed their first aid and CPR knowledge and those who did not (p = 0.045). Conclusion: Based on the findings of the present study, swimming coaches included in this research did not have enough knowledge and skills in first aid and CPR, which makes swimming programs unsafe. By obliging swimming coaches to acquire and constantly improve their knowledge and skills in first aid and CPR, the environment for all swimming programs would become safer.

Introduction: The Canadian C-Spine rule (CCR) was validated for use by paramedics to selectively immobilize stable trauma patients. However, the CCR “Dangerous Mechanism” is highly prevalent in sports. Our objective was to compare the CCR performance in sport-related vs. non-sport-related injuries and describe sport-related mechanisms of injury. Methods: We reviewed data from the prospective paramedic CCR validation and implementation studies in 7 Canadian cities, which already included identification of sport-related injuries. A single trained reviewer further categorized mechanisms of injury using a pilot-tested standardized form, with the aid of a sport medicine physician in 15 ambiguous cases. We compared the CCR's recommendation to immobilize sport-injured versus non-sport-injured patients using chi-square and relative risk statistics with 95% confidence intervals. Results: There were 201 amateur sport-injuries among the 5,978 patients. Sport-injured patients were younger (mean age 36.2 vs. 42.4) and more predominantly male (60.5% vs 46.8%) than non-sport-injured patients. Paramedics did not miss any c-spine injuries when using the CCR. Although cervical spine injury rates were similar between sport (2/201; 1.0%) and non-sport injured patients (47/5,777; 0.8%), the absolute number of sport-related injuries was very small. Although CCR recommended immobilization equally between the two groups (46.4% vs 42.5% p = 0.29; RR 1.17 95%CI 0.87-1.57), the reason for immobilization was more likely to be a dangerous mechanism in sport injuries (68.6% vs 54.5%, p = 0.012). Although we observed a wide range of mechanisms, the most common dangerous mechanism responsible for immobilization in sport was axial load. Conclusion: The CCR identified all significant c-spine injuries in a cohort of patients assessed and transported by paramedics. Although an equal proportion of sport and non-sports related injuries were immobilized, a dangerous mechanism was most often responsible for immobilization in sport-related cases. These findings do not address the potential impact of using the CCR to evaluate all sport-related injuries in collegiate or pro athletes evaluated by sport medicine therapists and physicians, as these patients are rarely assessed by paramedics or transported to a hospital. It does support the safety and benefit of using the CCR in sport-injured patients for which paramedics are called.

Context: Joint hypermobility has a high prevalence in dancers and may be associated with injury and performance. Objectives: To investigate whether total Beighton score can predict injury and to determine the relationship between joint hypermobility and injury, and to report injury demographics. Design: A prospective cohort injury study. Setting: Edge Hill University dance injury clinic. Participants: Eighty-two dancers (62 females, 20 males). Main Outcome Measures: Joint hypermobility via the Beighton score ≥4 with lumbar flexion included and removed. Results: A total of 61 dancers were classified as hypermobile, which was reduced to 50 dancers with lumbar flexion removed. A significant difference existed between pooled total days injured in hypermobile dancers and nonhypermobile dancers with lumbar flexion included (P = .02) and removed (P = .03). No significant differences existed for total Beighton score between injured and noninjured groups with lumbar flexion included (P = .11) and removed (P = .13). Total Beighton score was a weak predictor of total days injured (r2 = .06, P = .51). In total, 47 injuries occurred in 34 dancers, and pooled injury rate was 1.03 injuries/1000 hours. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated an area under the curve of 0.83 for male dancers with lumbar flexion removed, which was considered diagnostic for injury. Conclusions: The Beighton score can be utilized to identify dancers who may develop injury. Clinicians should consider the role of lumbar flexion in total Beighton score when identifying those dancers at risk of injury. Different injury thresholds in female and male dancers may aid injury management.

Background: Walking aids such as crutches, canes and walkers are used by 2 million Canadians. Repetitive weight-bearing with walking aids may cause upper limb peripheral nerve injury. The objectives of this review were to: 1) identify types of nerve injuries reported with walking aids; 2) report electrodiagnostic findings; 3) identify typical treatment strategies; and 4) determine expected recovery time for such injuries. Methods: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and Cochrane Library were searched for primary data in English published between 1950-2022. Abstracts were reviewed independently by 2 authors. Full-text reviews were independently conducted by 2 authors. Results: The search identified 3746 abstracts, 43 of which underwent full-text review. 31 studies were included. There were 144 cases of peripheral nerve injury. Crutches caused the most injuries (n=21 studies). The ulnar nerve was most commonly injured (n=27 cases). Improper walking aid fit was identified as a risk factor in 74% of cases. Stopping walking aid use was the most common treatment strategy (n=10 studies). Follow-up reports (n=20) indicated 65% of patients experienced recovery at 6 months. Conclusions: Improper walking aid fit and use were identified as major injury risk factors. A national program to teach patients and clinicians how to use walking aids may reduce injury risk.

Context: Research from the sport medicine professional's (SMP's) perspective indicates that SMPs are often required to address psychosocial aspects of injuries during treatment. However, only a few authors have investigated injured athletes' experiences with these concerns. Objective: To explore injured professional athletes' views on the role of SMPs in the psychosocial aspects of sport-injury rehabilitation. Design Qualitative study. Setting: Professional association football and rugby union clubs. Patients or Other Participants: Ten professional, male football (n = 4; 40%) and rugby union (n = 6; 60%) players (age = 22.4 ± 3.4 years). Data Collection and Analysis We collected data using a semistructured interview guide, and the data were then transcribed and analyzed following the interpretative phenomenological analysis guidelines. We peer reviewed and triangulated the established emergent themes to establish trustworthiness. Results: Athletes in our study viewed injuries as “part and parcel” of their sports. Despite normalizing sport injuries, athletes reported frequent feelings of frustration and self-doubt throughout the rehabilitation process. However, athletes' perceived the role of SMPs in injury rehabilitation as addressing physical concerns; any intervention aimed at psychosocial outcomes (eg, motivation, confidence) needed to be subtle and indirect. Conclusions: The SMPs working with injured athletes need to understand the psychosocial principles that underpin athletes' sport-injury processes and the effect psychosocial reactions can have on athletes. Moreover, SMPs must understand the self-regulatory processes that may take place throughout injury rehabilitation and be able to apply psychological principles in natural and subtle ways to aid athletes' self-regulatory abilities.

Accidents are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality among schoolchildren. Epidemiological and risk predictors of injury severity were investigated among all school injuries presenting at the Students’ Hospital in Alexandria during the scholastic year 1996-97. In all, 3422 injured pupils were surveyed. Age, nature of injury, place and mechanism of school injury and referral method were significant risk predictors for hospitalization. Age, referral method and nature of injury were significant predictors of referral to specialized health services. Injury severity score was significantly predicted by the presence of acute disease during time of injury, place and mechanism of injury as well as by provision of first aid and referral method and time

BackgroundSince 2011, hundreds of thousands of Syrians have been displaced and injured due to the ongoing Syrian civil war. In this study, we report the prevalence of neurologic injuries in a major rehabilitation center on the Turkish–Syrian border where death and injury tolls continue to rise.MethodBased on several on-site visits from 2013 to 2016, medical practitioners collected data from patients in the major rehabilitation center on the border of Turkey and Syria. The clinical data, which included the type and cause of injury, laterality, paralysis, areas injured, and treatment offered, were analyzed.ResultsA total of 230 patients were identified as having sustained a neurologic injury, 221/230 (96.1%) male and 9/230 (3.91%) female, ranging from ages 2–52 years. A total of 305 total injuries were documented over the course of a 4-year analysis due to several patients having multiple injuries. Gunshot wounds were the dominant mechanism of injury in 125/230 (54.3%) patients. Patients more frequently sustained single injuries 152/230 (66.1%) than multiple injuries 78/230 (33.9%). Peripheral nerve injuries were the most prevalent injuries, at 92.5% of all neurologic injuries (282/305), specifically injury to the radial nerve, at 19.1% (54/282) of peripheral injuries. Patients with spinal cord injuries made up 20/230 (8.7%) of all patients, with thoracic spine injuries composing 50% (10/20). Traumatic brain injuries were the least prevalent, 3/230 (1.3%), with an equal distribution of subtypes.ConclusionThis study and critical analysis of the devastation in Syria suggests the desperate need for emergency aid.

Protracted systemic disorders of homeostasis of traumatic disease may cause such severe and often lifeincompatible complications as acute respiratory and acute renal failure, sepsis, fat embolism. The effective way of their prevention is as early as possible rendering of qualified medical care to the injured. Under the Moscow First Aid Station there is a resuscitation-traumatologic CITO team. During 2,5 years the team rendered medical care to 1480 patients with severe multiorgan and concomitant injuries, 6,7% of patients had a severe degree of traumatic shock. Authors suggested the algorithms for diagnosis and prehospital management of severely injured. Use of those algorithms allowed to lower the rate of fat embolism and acute respiratory failure, to shorten the terms of assisted ventilation, duration of resuscitation and hospitalization. Twenty two patients (0,87%) with life incompatible injuries were lost.

It has been reported that injury among dancers has a lifetime incidence of 90%, and recent research suggests that up to 60% of those dancers injured will meet the requirements for clinical referral to a psychologist. This study aims to review the existing literature in the field of dance psychology that focuses on psychological antecedents and responses to injury. Several relevant theories in dance psychology are reviewed. From this literature, it is suggested that psychological techniques can be taught in educational settings to equip dance students with the necessary tools to look after their bodies and minds, reduce the risk of injury, and aid in healing existing injuries. Greater emphasis should also be placed on combining physical and psychological support to improve holistic care and treatment of dancers' injuries.

This small study conducted by an experienced First aid instructor and science educator sought to establish a baseline pilot study of what actions were observed and identified as injuries and subsequent first aid. A class of 29 four-year-old children were shown 8 nine inch tall Teddy Bears, dressed as World War I pilots. Each Teddy Bear with a simulated injury was shown by the researcher to the child and asked, what could be done to help each injured Teddy. Their responses were recorded by writing and analysed by a read and re-read process with a goal to establish the categories of the child’s rationale for their responses for reason of injuries and actions. A simple appropriate approach was then discussed with each child. The data indicated that children’s main solution to treatment was to ‘put on a bandaid’. The results showed that children had little comprehension of further treatment.

Background Laboratory staff handling blood or biological samples are at risk for accidental injury or exposure to blood-borne pathogens. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccinations for laboratory staff can minimize these risks. Objective The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of occupational exposure to needle stick injuries (NSIs) and assess HBV vaccination coverage among clinical laboratory staff in Sana’a, Yemen. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among clinical laboratory staff who were involved in handling and processing laboratory samples at the main public and private clinical laboratories in Sana’a. Data collection was done using a semistructured questionnaire. The questionnaire was divided into 3 parts. Part 1 included information on sociodemographic characteristics of participants. Part 2 included information on the availability of the personal protective equipment in the laboratories, such as lab coats and gloves. Part 3 included questions about the history of injury during work in the laboratory and the vaccination status for HBV. Results A total of 219/362 (60%) participants had been accidentally injured while working in the laboratory. Of those, 14.6% (32/219) had been injured during the last 3 months preceding the data collection. Receiving the biosafety manual was significantly associated with lower risk of injury. Out of those who were injured, 54.8% (120/219) had received first aid. About three-quarters of respondents reported that they had been vaccinated against HBV. The vaccination against HBV was significantly higher among laboratory staff who were working at private laboratories (P=.01), who had postgraduate degrees (P=.005), and who received the biosafety manual (P=.03). Conclusions Occupational exposure to NSI is still a major problem among laboratory staff in public and private laboratories in Sana’a, Yemen. The high incidence of injuries among laboratory staff and the low rate of receiving first aid in laboratories combined with low vaccination coverage indicates that all laboratory staff are at risk of exposure to HBV. Therefore, strengthening supervision, legalizing HBV vaccinations for all laboratory staff, and optimizing laboratory practices regarding the management of sharps can minimize risks and prerequisites in Yemen.

Problem. Chain saws are a commonly used tool with the potential to inflict severe injuries. Methods. Descriptive epidemiological estimates for emergency department (ED) visits for injuries associated with the use of a chain saw were calculated using data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System for the years 2009–2013. Results. A total of 115,895 ED visits for injuries related to the use of a chain saw occurred during the study period. Most injury visits occurred among males (95%) and persons aged 30–59 years and during the months of September through November. The main body sites injured were the hand/fingers and knee. The majority of injuries were lacerations (80%). Conclusions. Chain saw injuries present with characteristic patterns which can aid in prevention of injuries related to the use of these tools. Examination of the epidemiology of chain saw injuries will help to ascertain targeted needs for prevention and control efforts.

Gesture recognition is a way for computers to understand how humans move and express themselves without using traditional methods like typing or clicking. Instead of relying on text or graphics, gesture recognition focuses on reading body movements, such as those made by the hands or face. Currently, there is a specific interest in recognizing hand gestures by analyzing the veins on the back of the hand. Scientists have found that each person has a unique arrangement of veins beneath the skin of their hand. When the hand moves, the position of these veins changes, and this change is considered a gesture. These gestures are then translated into specific actions or tasks by coding the hand movements. This technology is particularly helpful for individuals with rotator cuff injuries. The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons in the shoulder that can get injured, causing pain and limiting movement. People with these injuries may have difficulty steering a car, especially if their job or sport involves repetitive overhead motions. With gesture recognition technology, a person can control the car by simply moving their wrist, eliminating the need to use the shoulder. In summary, gesture recognition technology reads the unique patterns of hand veins to interpret hand movements, making it a practical solution for individuals with rotator cuff injuries who may struggle with certain tasks, like steering a car.

Background: Sudden illness, injury or animal bites can often be serious unless proper care is administered promptly. First aid is immediate attention to one suffering from illness or injury. Everyone should be able to give effective assistance until an injured person can receive professional medical care. This study was undertaken with objectives of assessing the baseline knowledge among students of industrial training institute (ITI) about common health emergencies, their appropriate first aid measures and to conduct training on first aid through lecture and demonstration as well as to assess effectiveness of training on their knowledge about first aid.Methods: An Interventional study. Baseline and post-test assessment of knowledge scores was carried out after a week and 16 weeks of training sessions on first aid of all students in the institute. Data analyzed by SPSS software using descriptive statistics and appropriate statistical tests of significance.Results: Baseline knowledge about first aid in injuries and bites was higher among students than their knowledge about burns and other emergencies. Rural students and students of scheduled caste and tribe had low baseline knowledge (p=0.015 and p=0.025 respectively). Training on first aid significantly improved knowledge about all health emergencies among all students as evident from post-test scores at first week and 16 weeks (p<0.05). Gain in knowledge was significantly higher among rural students.Conclusions: Students had low baseline knowledge about first aid measures. Sessions combining knowledge and skills have brought about significant improvement in the knowledge of participants irrespective of their age, caste or urban-rural background.

Innovations in projectile design present unique challenges for trauma surgeons when treating gunshot victims. The G2 Radically Invasive Projectile (G2 Research, Winder, Georgia, USA) (G2RIP) is a frangible, rapidly expanding bullet resulting in a distinct pattern of injury consisting of diffuse hemorrhage with multicavity trauma as well as unique radiographic features of the projectile. To efficiently manage patients injured by the G2RIP, trauma surgeons must be aware of these distinct characteristics, and of previous patterns in effective management such as liberal damage control and extensive use of CT. Understanding previous presentation and management of patients injured by the G2RIP can aid in improving patient care in the trauma center.

Purpose: Healthcare workers are at risk of medical sharps injuries, which according to the Kenya national policy on injection safety, 58% of healthcare workers have suffered these injuries. This study was conducted with the aim of establishing occupational risk factors contributing to injury by medical sharps among healthcare workers at Kenyatta National Hospital, Nairobi, Kenya. Design/ Methodology/Approach: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted between July and December 2010. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 320 respondents from different job cadres of healthcare workers at the hospital who were selected proportionate to the sample frame. A checklist was used to observe medical sharps wastes management practices at the hospital. Findings: The study findings suggest that 44% of respondents were involved in medical sharps injury at the hospital. The majority of the injured respondents (91%) experienced medical sharps injuries between 1-2 times, while a few of the respondents (5%) experienced medical sharps injuries 3- 4 times within the past year. Sixty-two per cent of injured respondents suffered moderate injuries which were characterized by skin puncture and some bleeding, while 33% of respondents suffered superficial injuries which were without any bleeding and 5% of respondents experienced severe injuries which were characterized by profuse bleeding. Contribution to policy and practice: the study is of importance to the management of Kenyatta hospital, and the government. It will help the hospital's management in managing its human resources and also aid in addressing the myriad challenges facing the health sector.

The first aid is an important tool to save people’s lives after traffic accidents. Drivers are the most-likely bystanders, who might help injured people at the traffic accident site. The current research aims to explore Czech learner drivers‘ knowledge and attitudes towards the first aid and to evaluate whether the first aid education increases the likelihood that a driver will provide the first aid for injuries resulting from traffic accidents. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 2015 among a sample of 370 Czech learner drivers at driving schools. The two groups of student drivers were compared - those who had attended the first aid classes (FAC) and those who had not. The learner drivers who had attended an FAC are more likely to know how to treat burns and serious injuries, contain external bleeding, and unblock the respiratory track. Those who had not attended an FAC would more often hesitate to provide the first aid because they resisted taking a leadership role to organize the scene, or they did not have suitable equipment. This supports the idea that increasing the quality of the first aid training for Czech student drivers would improve the traffic safety in the Czech Republic.

In case of accidents during explosions and firearm injuries it is essential to use tourniquet in order to overcome the severe injuries and blood loss. There are a few essential things to consider when using a tourniquet. If it is not tightened well to arrest the blood loss, it continues and the injured person's life becomes very dangerous. If more pressure is given , and if it is not relaxed and squeezed hardly, it may cause serious issues. The purpose of this product is to produce a intelligent tourniquet system that can successfully arrest the bleeding by automatically providing the appropriate pressure to the limb, where it is affected to stop excessive bleeding in wounds. The developed system will be largely used in, first aid kits for vehicles, ambulances, emergency services for hospitals, fire trucks, first aid organizations, risky workplaces and so many civilian areas.

Object Unilateral contusions represent an increasingly popular model for studying the pathways and recovery mechanisms of spinal cord injury (SCI). Current studies rely heavily on motor behavior scoring and histological evidence to make assessments. Electrophysiology represents one way to reliably quantify the functionality of motor pathways. The authors sought to quantify the functional integrity of the bilateral motor and sensory pathways following unilateral SCI by using measurements of motor and somatosensory evoked potentials (MEPs and SSEPs, respectively). Methods Eighteen rats were randomly divided into 3 groups receiving a mild unilateral contusion, a mild midline contusion, or a laminectomy only (control). Contusions were induced at T-8 using a MASCIS impactor. Electrophysiological analysis, motor behavior scoring, and histological quantifications were then performed to identify relationships among pathway conductivity, motor function, and tissue preservation. Results Hindlimb MEPs ipsilateral to the injury showed recovery by Day 28 after injury and corresponded to approximately 61% of spared corticospinal tract (CST) tissue. In contrast, MEPs of the midline-injured group did not recover, and correspondingly > 90% of the CST tissue was damaged. Somatosensory evoked potentials showed only a moderate reduction in amplitude, with no difference in latency for the pathways ipsilateral to injury. Furthermore, these SSEPs were significantly better than those of the midline-injured rats for the same amount of white matter damage. Conclusions Motor evoked potential recovery corresponded to the amount of spared CST in unilateral and midline injuries, but motor behavior consistently recovered independent of MEPs. These data support the idea that spared contralateral pathways aid in reducing the functional deficits of injured ipsilateral pathways and further support the idea of CNS plasticity.

Background: There were 18,844 volleyball players in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) in the 2014-2015 academic year. Little research has examined sex-based differences among these athletes. Purpose: To examine injury epidemiology in NCAA men’s and women’s volleyball athletes. Study Design: Descriptive epidemiology study. Level of Evidence: Level 3. Methods: Injury surveillance data from the 2013-2014 through 2014-2015 academic years were obtained from the NCAA Injury Surveillance Program for 6 men’s and 33 women’s collegiate volleyball teams. Injury rates per 1000 athlete-exposures (AEs) and injury rate ratios (IRRs) with 95% CIs were calculated. Time-loss (TL) injuries resulted in participation restriction for at least 24 hours, and non-time-loss (NTL) injuries resulted in participation restriction of less than 24 hours. Results: Overall, 83 and 510 injuries were reported in men and women, respectively, leading to injury rates of 4.69 and 7.07 per 1000 AEs. The injury rate was greater in women than men (IRR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.19-1.90). TL injury rates were 1.75 and 2.62 per 1000 AEs for men and women, respectively. The ankle was the most commonly injured body part among TL injuries (men, 25.8%; women, 24.3%); the knee was the most commonly injured body part among NTL injuries (men, 25.5%; women, 16.3%). Among TL injuries, common diagnoses included sprains (men, 25.8%; women, 31.2%) and concussions (men, 19.4%; women, 14.8%). Most TL concussions were due to ball contact (men, 83.3%; women, 53.6%). Compared with men, women had a greater NTL overuse injury rate (IRR, 3.47; 95% CI, 1.61-7.46). Compared with women, men had a greater TL injury rate associated with ball contact (IRR, 2.24; 95% CI, 1.07-4.68). Conclusion: There are differences in injury patterns and rates between male and female intercollegiate volleyball players. Although a limited-contact sport, a notable number of concussions were sustained, mostly from ball contact. Clinical Relevance: Understanding injury patterns may aid clinicians in injury diagnosis, management, and prevention.

Complex nerve remodeling occurs in the injured brain area during functional rehabilitation after a brain injury; however, its mechanism has not been thoroughly elucidated. Neural remodeling can lead to changes in the electrophysiological activity, which can be detected in an electroencephalogram (EEG). In this paper, we used EEG band energy, approximate entropy (ApEn), sample entropy (SampEn), and Lempel–Ziv complexity (LZC) features to characterize the intrinsic rehabilitation dynamics of the injured brain area, thus providing a means of detecting and exploring the mechanism of neurological remodeling during the recovery process after brain injury. The rats in the injury group (n = 12) and sham group (n = 12) were used to record the bilateral symmetrical EEG on days 1, 4, and 7 after a unilateral brain injury in awake model rats. The open field test (OFT) experiments were performed in the following three groups: an injury group, a sham group, and a control group (n = 10). An analysis of the EEG data using the energy, ApEn, SampEn, and LZC features demonstrated that the increase in SampEn was associated with the functional recovery. After the brain injury, the energy values of the delta1 bands on day 4; the delta2 bands on days 4 and 7; the theta, alpha, and beta bands and the values of ApEn, SampEn, and LZC of the cortical EEG signal on days 1, 4 and 7 were significantly lower in the injured brain area than in the non-injured area. During the process of recovery for the injured brain area, the values of the beta bands, ApEn, and SampEn of the injury group increased significantly, and gradually became equal to the value of the sham group. The improvement in the motor function of the model rats significantly correlated with the increase in SampEn. This study provides a method based on EEG nonlinear features for measuring neural remodeling in injured brain areas during brain function recovery. The results may aid in the study of neural remodeling mechanisms.

Accidents during mountaineering are special because mountain rescue operations are time-consuming and material-intensive. Since even in Europe it takes a long time for professional help to reach the injured person, first aid rugulary has to be provided by the accompanying mountaineers. This case report of a seriously injured person at an altitude of 5,700 m describes the special challenges of such a rescue operation. After the accident, the patient has to be moved out of the immediate danger zone to enable examination, treatment must be startet and further transport organized. This requires profound training in makeshift mountain rescue techniques, the use of diagnostic algorithms and safe application of medications. Generally, material and manpower are very limited in such situations and exhaustion due to the challenging tour is an aggravating factor. Therefore, the group has to look for external help and support at an early stage. For this purpose, efficient communication equipment is required and contacts must already be established. There is a high level of emotional stress when treating friends. In order to cope successfully with such a stressful situation, profound education and intensive training, as well as a strategy for external support developed in advance, are necessary.

BACKGROUND: Knowledge of prehospital scene care for injured person in road accidents is essential for improving outcome and saving lives of traffic accident victims. However, the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic may cause people’s inability to access in-person first aid training. AIM: This study aimed to determine the effect of first aid self-learning web application for road accident victims on the knowledge and satisfaction of the web application users. METHODS: A prospective, single-arm, and educational cohort study was conducted among second-year physical education participants at Khon Kaen University attending first aid self-learning web application for road accident victims in July 2021. All participants were attended ten lessons covering important content of first aid for an injured person in road accidents. Each lesson includes reading texts, 3-min animation videos, and pre-test and post-test. Data analysis includes a comparison of the pre-test and post-test knowledge scores using the paired t-test. The participant’s satisfaction was analyzed using descriptive statistics. RESULTS: The 42 participants were participated in this study. Sixty-two percent of the participants had no previous first aid experience for an injured person in road accidents. The mean pre-test and post-test scores were 25.31 ± 3.87 and 27.50 ± 2.91, respectively. There was a significant difference between the pre-test and the post-test scores (p < 0.001). The participant’s level of satisfaction score was very good (4.25 ± 0.95). CONCLUSIONS: The first aid self-learning web application significantly improved the first aid knowledge of the web application users. Moreover, most participants reported good level of satisfaction for using this tool. This emphasized that the first aid self-learning web application was the great tool in COVID-19 learning.

AbstractImportance:This paper provides a large-scale, per Major League Baseball (MLB) game analysis of foul ball (FB) injury data and provides estimates of injury frequency and severity.Objective:This study’s goal was to quantify and describe the rate and type of FB injuries at MLB games.Design:This was a retrospective review of medical care reports for patients evaluated by on-site health care providers (HCPs) over a non-contiguous 11-year period (2005-2016). Data were obtained using Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.Setting:Data were received from three US-based MLB stadiums.Results:The review reported 0.42-0.55 FB injuries per game that were serious enough to warrant presentation at a first aid center. This translated to a patients per 10,000 fans rate (PPTT) of 0.13-0.23. The transport to hospital rate (TTHR) was 0.02-0.39. Frequently, FB injuries required analgesics but were overwhelmingly minor and occurred less often than non-FB traumatic injuries (5.2% versus 42%-49%). However, FB injured fans were more likely to need higher levels of care and transport to hospital (TH) as compared to people suffering other traumatic injuries at the ballpark. Contusions or head injuries were common. Finally, FB injured fans were often hit in the abdomen, upper extremity, face, or head. It was found that FB injuries appeared to increase with time, and this increase in injuries aligns with the sudden increase in popularity of smartphones in the United States.Conclusions and Relevance:These data suggest that in roughly every two or three MLB games, a foul ball causes a serious enough injury that a fan seeks medical attention. This rate is high enough to warrant attention, but is comparable in frequency to other diagnostic categories. Assessing the risk to fans from FBs remains difficult, but with access to uniform data, researchers could answer persistent questions that would lead to actionable changes and help guide public policy towards safer stadiums.

AIM OF STUDY. To assess the types and scope of first aid for pelvic injuries in women in conditions of local military conflict. MATERIAL AND METHODS. To achieve this goal, an analysis of injuries received during local military operations carried out in the Republic of Chechnya from 1991 to 2000 was carried out. The treatment was carried out on the basis of the surgical hospital of medical organization No. 9 in Grozny. The severity of the injury was determined retrospectively using the Field Surgery Scale, distinguishing four degrees of severity. Injured patients with combined injuries to the chest, abdomen, and head were excluded. The average age of patients was 34 [28; 40] years. The total number was 86. RESULTS. As the study shows, group A included 54 (62.8 %), and group B included 32 (37.2 %) patients. The distribution by group is presented as follows: in group A, 44 (51.2 %) shrapnel wounds, 10 (11.6 %) gunshot wounds. In group B, there were, respectively, 25 shrapnel (29.1 %) and 7 gunshot (8.1 %) wounds. Further analysis showed that penetrating wounds predominated, which were observed in 67 (77.9 %) cases, non-penetrating wounds were only revealed in 19 (22.1 %) cases (r = 0.97, p < 0.05, statistically significant). Distribution by groups: in group A there were 48 (55.8 %) and 6 (7.0 %), respectively, in group B there were 19 (22.1 %) and 13 (15.1 %) observations. Anti-shock measures, which include pain relief and infusion therapy, were carried out in 31 (36.0 %) cases in group A and in 5 (5.8 %) cases in group B (r = 0.97, p < 0 .05, statistically significant). At the same time, in the group of patients where first aid was provided by random witnesses or as self-help, the n

This report presents the details of a case of sight-threatening injury in the right eye of a 77-year-old man which was caused by the venom of the Asian giant hornet (Vespa mandarinia). The patient was not stung, rather the venom was sprayed into his eye. Although the injured eye was washed as a first aid treatment, persistent corneal defect, corneal endothelial decompensation, iris atrophy, pupil dilation, and mature cataract were observed and a hand movement visual acuity was recorded 8 weeks after the injury. Since a slight a-wave was detected in his electroretinogram (ERG) result after the corneal epithelial defect had healed, we performed cataract surgery and Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). After the DSAEK, the cornea of the right eye became clearer; however, the visual acuity of his right eye did not improve. Fundus examination revealed branch retinal artery occlusion but no optic disc atrophy. ERG showed that the a-wave amplitude of the injured eye recorded after the surgery was almost half of that of the fellow eye. The iris atrophy and mature cataract show that the sprayed Vespa venom of the Asian giant hornet can permeate into the intraocular area even without stinging. Whether the venom directly affects retinal function is unclear, but the decreased a-wave of the injured eye shows that the venom caused damage of retinal function in some way. Irrigation of the anterior chamber as well as eye washing is needed as a first aid treatment in similar cases.

Saudi Arabia is interested in providing health care and ambulatory for all citizens, residents and tourists of the pilgrims and pilgrims, and it is cooperating with the Saudi Red Crescent Authority (SRCA) to provide emergency health care especially for the pilgrims, Ammar - an independent body dealing with this. The efforts of SRCA can be highly noticed during on the Hajj season and public events such as the national day celebrations. The main issue lies in the fact that despite their efforts, the Ambulance Response Time (ART) remains higher than the global standard. Moreover, the reasons behind the high ART are circumstantial and thus hard to maneuver or manipulate. Therefore, to benefit from the Red Crescent’s efforts and the first aid courses they offer, a system where credible first aiders can be summoned to provide proper and faster first aid to the injured is suggested. This study aims to develop an application to request the help of the nearest first aider by the injured or bystanders close to the injured. Also, to develop an interface that shows the route to get to the victim. The result has shown a positive indication of the importance of a system where credible first aiders can be summoned to provide proper and faster first aid to the injured. This study contributes to increase bystanders’ awareness because they have the ability to connect with the nearest registered first aider.

Relevance. On April 6, 2023 large-scale cross-departmental experimental and research exercises took place for the forces of the Common Public System of Emergency Prevention and Response in the Russian Arctic, called ‘Safe Arctic - 2023’. The exercises focused on elimination of medical and sanitary consequences of man-made accidents at the Kostomuksha Mining and Treatment facility (Republic of Karelia).The objective is to analyse and summarise emergency response experience of rescuers and medical forces within the framework of cross-departmental exercises in the Russian Arctic, to assess first aid and emergency medical responses, provided to victims in emergency scenarios.Methods. The exercises were participated by over 100 rescuers, workers and volunteers, with 17 units of emergency and fire rescue equipment, 4 emergency response ambulances, and a MI-8 helicopter with medevac units available for medical evacuation of 12 injured patients. Seven top professional experts assessed medical response and evacuation on a 5-score scale (with 5 as the highest score). We studied medical documents (patient medical records, medical triage tags, expert scoring), verified statistic distribution and validated calculations using Student’s t-test for discrete unrelated samples.Results and discussion. Experts highly appreciated the quality of first aid with rescuers scoring (4.6 ± 0.3) points, while medical triage scored (4.7 ± 0.2) points, emergency pre-medical, medical and specialised medical treatment of the injured scored (4.6 ± 0.2) points. Patient triage demonstrated high-quality, with life-threatening injuries and traumas accurately identified; patients were accurately diagnosed and triaged for evacuation. During medical evacuation, emergency medical care was provided to all the injured in a comprehensive and timely manner, with no discrepancies in diagnoses.Conclusion. The resulting xpert assessments of the cross-departmental experimental and research exercises ‘Safe Arctic – 2023’ showed significantly high quality of first aid, medical triage and emergency medical care during evacuation, though not without imperfections. The organising committee received recommendations regarding ways to improve cross-departmental cooperation in first aid and medical care in emergency scenarios; these recommendations were formulated in the final report.

Introduction: The global injury death rate is 1.2 million in the world. Airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure can be used for all emergencies with a systematic approach for critical and injured patients. However, not many people understand and are not skilled in doing initial aid handling injured patients. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the ability in the initial treatment of injured patients with the airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure approach to the community. Methods: This study used an observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The population is all ordinary people, with a sample size of 110 people taken by simple random sampling. The independent variables are the factors that affect the ability, namely age, education, and experience factors. The dependent variable is ability. Data analysis used linear regression p-value = 0.001. Results: Research shows that age, gender, and knowledge affect the ability to handle injured patients, so all factors have a significant effect on ability. In general, research was conducted to analyze the factors that affect the skill level in handling injured patients with the airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure approach to the community. The airway, breathing, circulation, disability, and exposure approach proves an ability in the initial treatment of injured patients. Conclusion: The factors of age, gender, and knowledge affect the ability to handle injured patients. Following that, the BLS guideline 2020 effectively improves the ability for daily emergency management. For health workers, this method is very helpful in reducing morbidity and mortality.

AbstractThe acromioclavicular (AC) joint is commonly injured in athletes participating in contact and overhead throwing sports. Injuries range from simple sprains to complete ligamentous disruption, and they are classified by the established Rockwood grading system. High-grade injuries are associated with fractures around the AC joint and disruption of the superior shoulder suspensory complex, a ring of osseous and ligamentous structures at the superior aspect of the shoulder. Radiographs are the mainstay of imaging of the AC joint, with magnetic resonance imaging reserved for high-grade injuries to aid classification and plan surgical management. Low-grade AC joint injuries tend to be managed conservatively, but a wide range of surgical procedures have been described for higher grade injuries and fractures around the AC joint. This review illustrates the anatomy of the AC joint and surrounding structures, the imaging features of AC joint injury, and the most commonly performed methods of reconstruction and their complications.

Bleeding is caused by an injury to a blood vessel. External bleeding is visible because the blood flows out on the surface of the body. Internal bleeding occurs inside the body so it can remain unrecognized for a long time. The intensity of the bleeding depends on the size of the injured blood vessel. In case of injury to a larger vessel, the blood will flow out in a stream, so the patient can bleed out very quickly. That is why stopping bleeding is a priority first aid procedure for any injury.

Relevance. Most of the victims of road accidents die prior to the arrival of medical staff, therefore, providing first aid to injured people in the first minutes after receiving injuries is very important for saving human life and health. Timely and skillful provision of first aid to victims of road accidents prevents further deterioration of the state of the human body and can positively affect the entire process of its further treatment and rehabilitation.Aim of study. To characterize the delivery of first aid to victims of road traffic accidents at the present stage and to outline possible ways for its improvement.Material and methods. To achieve this goal, an analysis was made of the results of domestic and foreign scientific research and regulatory legal acts on the issue of providing first aid to victims of road accidents. The literature search was carried out in specialized scientific search engines eLibrary, PubMed, Scopus using the keywords: first aid, prehospital stage, road traffic injuries, road traffic accidents. For the analysis, scientific articles published between 1980 and 2020 were selected. Resources with outdated or inaccurate information were excluded, some scientific papers were found by links to articles. The state of the problem of providing first aid to victims of road traffic injuries, for the most part, reflects scientific publications over the past ten years.

Abstract Background Burn first aid awareness has been shown to reduce morbidity and mortality. We present a report on the knowledge and practices of the Saudi population with regard to burn first aid and the application of traditional remedies. Methods An internet-based survey was conducted to assess the public’s knowledge on first aid practices and home remedies applied for burn injuries among Saudi adults. Results A total of 2758 individuals responded to the survey. There were 1178 (42.7 %) respondents who had previously received burn first aid information. One thousand five hundred fifty respondents had a history of burn exposure in which burn injury first aid was applied as follows: 1118 (72.1 %) removed clothing and accessories from the injured area; water was applied by 990 (63.9 %); among those who applied water, 877 (88.6 %) applied cold water; and only 57 (5.8 %) did so for more than 15 min. Wrapping the burn area was performed by 526 (33.9 %), and 985 (63.5 %) sought medical assistance. When it comes to traditional remedies, 2134 (77.4 %) knew of and/or implemented these remedies as first aid or to treat burns. Honey and toothpaste were the commonest among these remedies with 1491 (69.9 %) and 1147 (53.7 %), respectively. This was associated with female gender (r = 0.87, P &lt; 0.001), younger age group (19–25 years) (r = 0.077, P &lt; 0.001), from central region (r = 0.012, P &lt; 0.001), and university graduate (r = 0.05, P = 0.002). Nearly half of those who knew of traditional remedies did not have previous knowledge of burn first aid. Conclusions Proper burn first aid is a simple, cheap, and accessible means of managing burns initially. Although the majority of the respondents were university graduates (51.1 %), knowledge and implementation of burn first aid was very poor. Major healthcare agencies should review and promote a consistent guideline for burn first aid in an effort to tackle and minimize the effect of this grave injury.
