Abstract

Knowledge of first aid, which constitutes life-saving treatments for injuries or unexpected illnesses, is important for every individual at every age. First aid and basic life support are so important that teaching basic first aid should be compulsory in all schools. According to world health organization (WHO), injuries related to traffic accidents were ninth among the first 10 causes of global disease burden in 1990. They are expected to be ranked in third place after ischemic cardiac disease and unipolar major depression in 2020. Basic first aid training prepares students to react to situations and provide immediate, efficient management for a wide variety of incidents. Providing of knowledge and training about correct management of injuries and illnesses to students is important to improve their health knowledge which in turn may lead to healthy and save life. It is necessary to strengthen school health services through full participation of teachers and educators, providing them training sessions and update them by regularly interacting with them. Literature demonstrates that the widespread dissemination of first aid may have benefits for injury prevention in terms of reducing traffic crashes, lowering rates of workplace incidents, and increasing safety awareness. The present study revealed a perceived need for knowledge regarding first aid among school students and thus advocates that first-aid education should be made compulsory in school syllabus. It is reasonable to conclude that the ultimate goal of the first aid is neither to treat, nor to diagnose, but to stabilize the patient.

学生急救意识调查述评
急救知识对每个年龄的人都很重要,它是对受伤或意外疾病的救命疗法。急救和基本的生命支持是如此重要,所以在所有的学校都必须教授基本的急救知识。根据世界卫生组织(卫生组织)的资料,1990年,与交通事故有关的伤害在全球疾病负担的十大原因中排名第九。预计到2020年,它们将排在缺血性心脏病和单极重性抑郁症之后,位居第三。基本的急救训练使学生能够对各种情况作出反应,并为各种各样的事件提供即时、有效的管理。向学生提供有关正确处理伤害和疾病的知识和培训,对提高他们的健康知识非常重要,这反过来又可能导致健康和挽救生命。有必要通过教师和教育工作者的充分参与加强学校保健服务,为他们提供培训课程,并通过定期与他们互动来更新这些课程。文献表明,在减少交通事故、降低工作场所事故发生率和提高安全意识方面,急救的广泛传播可能对预防伤害有好处。本研究揭示了在校学生对急救知识的感知需求,因此主张急救教育应成为学校教学大纲中的必修课。可以合理地得出这样的结论:急救的最终目的既不是治疗,也不是诊断,而是稳定病人的状态。
