Summary

TLDRThe script outlines the proper use of a long or rigid board for immobilizing victims suspected of cervical or lumbar spine injuries. It emphasizes the importance of using five yellow straps and one red or differently colored strap for securing upper body parts. The process involves correctly positioning and adjusting straps, ensuring minimal movement during transportation, and securing a lateral head immobilizer for safe pre-hospital care.

Takeaways

🏥 A rigid board or long board is used to restrain victims suspected of having spinal injuries in the cervical or lumbar region.
🔍 It is recommended to have five yellow straps and one red or differently colored strap for distinguishing the upper limb restraint.
📏 The first step is to place two crossed straps at the height of the trunk on the long board, ensuring correct positioning.
🔗 Adjust the excess length of the straps in a zigzag pattern to avoid interference during the operation.
🔄 After the initial straps, the remaining ones should be passed under the rigid board in a transverse manner.
🔍 It's crucial to condition the excess straps in a zigzag pattern as demonstrated in the video.
🔐 Firefighters should use smaller straps to reduce the displacement amplitude of the equipment during vehicle movement.
🔴 After placing the five straps, the firefighter must place the red strap for fixing the upper limbs, as shown in the video.
➡️ The male end of the red strap should be adjusted from right to left as viewed from the board, allowing for adjustments during vehicle movement.
🔨 After securing the straps, the firefighter should place the base of the lateral head immobilizer to ensure it is well installed.
🛠️ Finally, the firefighter should place the remaining equipment, ensuring the equipment is ready for pre-hospital care.

How should the excess of the straps be adjusted?
-The excess of the straps should be adjusted in a zigzag pattern to avoid interference during the operation.
What is the importance of using smaller pass-throughs for the straps?
-Using smaller pass-throughs helps to reduce the amplitude of displacement of the equipment during the movement of the vehicle and transportation.
Which strap is used for immobilizing the upper limbs and how should it be adjusted?
-The red strap is used for immobilizing the upper limbs, and it should be adjusted from right to left as viewed from the board.
What is the purpose of adjusting the male buckle of the strap from right to left?
-This adjustment allows the firefighter to make new adjustments when necessary during the movement of the vehicle.
What is the next step after placing the five straps?
-After placing the five straps, the firefighter should place the red strap for the fixation of the upper limbs.
What is the importance of placing the base of the lateral head immobilizer?
-It is important to fix all the straps with the aim of keeping the base well installed.
What should be done after fixing the base of the lateral head immobilizer?
-After fixing the base, the firefighter should place the remaining equipment, ensuring that the equipment is ready for pre-hospital care.
What is the final step in preparing the equipment for use in pre-hospital care?
-The final step is to ensure that all the equipment is in place and ready for use in pre-hospital care.

🚑 Proper Use of Long Board for Spine Injuries

This paragraph discusses the correct use of a long board, also known as a rigid board, for victims suspected of having spinal injuries in the cervical or lumbar region. The importance of using five yellow straps and one red or differently colored strap for distinguishing the upper limb restraint is emphasized. The steps include placing two crossed straps at the trunk height, adjusting the excess straps in a zigzag pattern to prevent interference during operation, and passing the other straps under the board in a transverse manner. Additionally, firefighters are advised to pass straps through smaller loops to reduce the amplitude of equipment displacement during vehicle movement and transport. After placing the five straps, the firefighter must place the red strap for fixing the upper limbs, ensuring the male end of the strap is adjusted from right to left as viewed from the board. This allows for adjustments during vehicle movement. Finally, the lateral head immobilizer base is placed, and all straps are secured to ensure proper installation. The paragraph concludes with the equipment being ready for pre-hospital care.

Keywords

💡Spine board

A spine board, also referred to as a long board or rigid board in the script, is a device used to immobilize victims suspected of having spinal injuries. It is crucial in preventing further damage to the vertebral column. In the video, the correct positioning and securing of the spine board are emphasized to ensure the safety of the patient during transport.

💡Spinal injury

Spinal injury refers to damage to the spinal cord or the vertebral column, which can be life-threatening and lead to paralysis. The video script highlights the importance of suspecting spinal injury in certain cases and using a spine board to prevent exacerbating the condition, such as in cases of suspected cervical or lumbar spine injuries.

💡Straps

Straps, mentioned as 'tirantes' in the script, are used to secure the patient to the spine board. The script suggests using five yellow straps and one red or differently colored strap to distinguish the one used for restraining the upper limbs. Proper adjustment of these straps is crucial for immobilizing the patient effectively.

💡Crossed straps

Crossed straps are used to secure the patient's torso to the spine board. The script instructs to place two crossed straps at the height of the trunk, observing the correct position of the straps and adjusting any excess in a zigzag pattern to prevent interference during operation.

💡Zigzag adjustment

Zigzag adjustment refers to the method of adjusting the excess length of the straps in a zigzag pattern. This technique is mentioned in the script as a way to manage the straps so they do not interfere with the operation or movement of the patient during transport.

💡Smaller straps

Smaller straps, or 'passadores menores' in the script, are used to reduce the amplitude of displacement of the equipment during movement and transport. This is important for maintaining the stability and security of the patient on the spine board.

💡Red strap

The red strap, highlighted in the script, is specifically used for securing the upper limbs of the patient. It is crucial for immobilizing the upper body to prevent movement that could potentially worsen spinal injuries.

💡Head immobilizer

The head immobilizer, or 'imobilizador lateral de cabeça' in the script, is a device used to stabilize the patient's head and prevent movement that could further damage the cervical spine. Proper fixation of all straps is emphasized to ensure the head immobilizer is well installed.

💡Pre-hospital care

Pre-hospital care refers to the medical treatment and care provided to patients before they reach a hospital. The script discusses the setup and use of equipment like the spine board for this purpose, emphasizing the importance of proper immobilization techniques in the initial stages of patient care.

💡Transport

Transport in the context of the script refers to the movement of the patient from the scene of an accident to a medical facility. The correct use of the spine board and its straps is critical during this phase to ensure the patient's safety and prevent further injury.

💡Adjustment

Adjustment is a key concept in the script, referring to the process of fine-tuning the straps and equipment to ensure a secure and comfortable fit for the patient. The script mentions adjusting the male buckle of the red strap from right to left, allowing for adjustments during transport if necessary.
