Activity Title : Conducting Primary and Secondary Survey of the Victim

Learning Target : Demonstrate the procedures in conducting primary and secondary survey of
the victim.
Reference(s) : Learner’s Material 9, p. 12-19, MELCs (H9IS-IIIb-37)
LAS Writer : Mary Ann S. Rivera

Two ways to conduct physical examination when giving first aid:

1. Primary Survey- It is used when a victim is unconscious and to find out and treat immediately
life-threatening conditions. It is usually done by checking the consciousness (ask the victim),check
the circulation of the victim, open the airway and check for breathing .
2. Secondary Survey- It is used when a victim is conscious or has revived. It aims to detect
patient’s condition. It includes history of the victim and checking of vital signs.

Things to remember in doing secondary survey:

Check the following in Carefully check the following In conducting interview to the
conducting Head-to-Toe vital signs: victim apply mnemonic code

the steps more easily.

Direction: In a one sheet of paper, draw a picture portraying an emergency situation that may
happen in the road or at home and in doing primary and secondary survey in the victim.
Then, a short explanation about your drawing.

Activity Title : Assessing Emergency Situation for Unintentional Injuries

Learning Target : Assesses emergency situation for unintentional injuries.
Reference(s) : Learner’s Material Health 9 pp. 12-20, MELCs (H9IS-IIIb-38)
LAS Writer : Mary Ann S. Rivera
Ways in Assessing Emergency Situations for Unintentional Injuries
Monitoring Vital Signs- are measures of various physiological statistics taken to assess the most
basic body functions. It includes taking of body temperature, pulse rate or heart rate, blood
pressure and respiratory rate.
a. Checking the casualty’s level of response using the AVPU code, which means ALERT,
VOICE, PAIN and UNRESPONSIVE.
b. Checking Pulse rate -the following are the major pressure points of the body. It consist of
temporal (temple or scalp); facial ( lower face or below eyes); brachial pulse ( inner side of
upper arm); radial pulse (base of the thumb just below the creases of the wrist); carotid pulse
(side of the neck,in the hallow between the windpipe and the large neck muscle; femoral
(thigh, lower leg or foot).Normal pulse of adult is 60-80 beats per minute.
c. Checking Breathing- feel the chest movement, count and record the number of breaths per
minute. The normal breathing rate of an adult is 12-16 breaths per minute while for young
children is 20-30 breaths.
d. Checking Temperatures- the normal body temperature is 370C or 98.6 0F.
Remember the acronym CAB (Circulation, Airway, Breathing) given by the American Heart
Association to perform the steps of CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation).
* Circulation- it is restoring of blood circulation with chest compression.
* Airway- Clear the airway, open the person’s airway using the head-tilt and chin-lift maneuver.
*Breathing- breath for the person. Rescue breathing can be mouth-to-mouth breathing or mouth-
to-nose breathing if the mouth is seriously injured or can’t be opened.

Direction: Find a partner whom you can perform some ways in assessing unintentional
injuries. (6pts)
Ways to Do
Checking pulse rate (beats/minute)
Checking breathing (breaths/minute)
Checking temperature

A. Rate your own level of performance in assessing unintentional injuries during emergency
situations by checking it. Then, write your reasons why you have given yourself that kind of
rating. Below is your guide in rating yourself. (4pts)

Activity Title : Appropriate Bandaging Techniques for Unintentional Injuries

Learning Target : Demonstrates appropriate bandaging techniques for unintentional injuries.
Reference(s) : HEALTH 9 Learner’s Material, MELCs (H9IS-IIIc.d-41)
LAS Writer : Dionna Correen A. Jayme

Dressing - is a piece of sterile cloth that covers a wound to prevent infections and or stop bleeding.
Bandages - are used to apply pressure to bleeding, for covering wounds and burns, and providing
support for immobilization for broken bones, sprains, and strains.

3 Main Types of Bandages

1. Triangular bandage - is made up from cloth and can be used as cold compress, padding ,
support for pressure or support sling.
2. Ace bandage - secures dressing in place.
3. Tubular - is used to support joints or holds dressing in place. Smaller tubular bandage is used
for finger injuries.
Techniques in Bandaging
1. Keep in mind the following:
A. Always use a square not
B. Keep the cloth sterile to avoid infection
C. Always keep the ends
2. Bandaging technique depends upon the size and location of the wound
3. Bandage firmly over bleeding and securely over broken bone
4. When wrapping bandages around the body use its natural hollows to slide the bandage gently
5. Check regularly to ensure the bandage is still comfortable and remains secured
6. Secure the bandage with tape, clips or a bow or square not.

Direction: Select 5 types of bandages you want to perform. Then, take a picture of your output. You
can have an extra sheet of paper where you can paste your pictures.
