Ensure continuous oxygen supply, either as cylinders or oxygen concentrator, at all times.

Give oxygen to all children with oxygen saturation < 90%

<h3>What is Respiratory distress ?</h3>

The tiny, elastic air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs experience fluid buildup, which results in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Less oxygen enters your circulation because of the fluid's ability to prevent your lungs from filling with enough air. Your organs are deprived of the oxygen they require to function as a result.

  • When a person can't control gas exchange, they experience respiratory distress because they either breathe in too little oxygen or breathe out too little carbon dioxide. Following respiratory distress, respiratory failure results in increasingly serious problems with gas exchange. It might be lethal if left untreated.

When splinting a possible fracture of the foot, it is most important for the emt to?
mario62 [17]

Leave the toes exposed.

Splinting, immobilization, or both are recommended for any suspected fracture (broken bone) or dislocation. A strong splint effectively reduces discomfort and helps to stop future damage. Splints can be purchased already manufactured or can be created using simple supplies.

One may, for instance, use a foam sleeping pad, boards, layers of cardboard, or branches. Bandanas, climbing webbing, shredded shirts, jeans, or other garments can be used as wrapping materials for the splint.

To secure the splint, these materials should fully encircle the affected extremity. However, they shouldn't be too tightly wrapped to restrict blood flow.
