Activity (16/7/2011)

We had an extra activity on 16th of July. We had learn something about Bandage and Fracture. We had learn Open Fracture/ Compound fracture and Close Fracture/ Simple Fracture. There are 3 types of fracture which is simple,complicated and green stick (for baby) .  Symptoms and signs for fracture is 1. Difficulty in moving. 2. Pain. 3. Tenderness over a bone 4. Signs of shock (not sufficient blood to the brain) .  On the other hand, for the we had learn how to use bandage like arm sling, elevation sling/St John Arm Sling, Head Bandage and others. How do we indicate that a bandage is too tight? We can do the pinch off pinch off and see the casualty's finger whether the circulation is normal. Besides that, we can ask them whether is it too tight? If the casualty's hand is cold , that means it's too tight. This activity goes successfully =) ST JOHN THE BEST~!! =D
