same patient to prevent cross-contamination of different body sites.
✔✔Initial treatment for a bee sting - ✔✔Provide supplemental oxygen.
Diphenhydramine limits the size of the local reaction.
Clean the wound and remove the stinger if present.
Apply ice or cool packs.
Elevate the extremity to limit edema.
✔✔Treatment for unresponsive hypoglycemic patient - ✔✔Glucagon is a treatment for
hypoglycemia, but it's not the only treatment. Hypoglycemia is somewhat unique among
prehospital emergencies because it has multiple EMT treatment options, including:
Encouraging the patient to eat his or her own food. Administering the patient oral
glucose.

✔✔Treatment for ingested poisoning - ✔✔Prehospital treatment O2
Ventilatory support
Rapid transport• May be absorbed through skin
Remove contaminated clothing
Flush skin with soap & water • Wear PPE
✔✔Assisting with a normal delivery - ✔✔1). There may be a gush of fluid as the
amniotic sac breaks and labor begins, as well as a bloody show — the mucous plug
covering the cervix drops away during a contraction.
2). The mother experiences intermittent contractions that become longer and more
regular.
3). Contractions become very strong as delivery begins; the cervix is now fully dilated.
4). The baby's head emerges first, face down.
5). The head drops down slightly as the next contraction occurs. Very quickly, the
shoulders pop past the pubic bone and the newborn is delivered.
6). Continue to dry and warm the newborn.
7). Note the time of birth and evaluate the newborn's APGAR score at 1 minute and 5 5
minutes after birth.
The highest score is a 10; the lowest is zero. A score of 7 or greater in the first minute is
considered normal.
Clamp and cut the newborn's umbilical cord, which is still attached.
8). Clamp the cord with the two clips supplied in the delivery kit. One clamp should be 3
to 4 inches from the newborn's body, the other about 2 to 4 inches away from the first.
9). Wrap the newborn in dry clothing or blankets, and cover the head with the cap in the
OB delivery kit.
10). If the mother intends to breast-feed her baby, encourage her to do so.
11). Prepare for the delivery of the placenta.
The placenta delivers 10 to 20 minutes after the newborn. This delivery occurs naturally.
Place the placenta into a plastic bag and bring it to the hospital.
12). Perform fundal massage after delivery to help reduce the amount of bleeding from
the uterus.
✔✔First trimester complications - ✔✔Vaginal Bleeding.
Excessive Nausea and Vomiting.
