The position used in first aid to ensure the victim’s airway stays open while waiting for medical attention is known as the recovery position.

<h3>Extra Information on recovery positions</h3>

Anyone who is unresponsive but breathing and does not have any other life-threatening conditions should assume the recovery posture.

The recovery position will help to maintain a person’s clear and open airway. Additionally, it guarantees that they won’t suffocate on any liquids or vomit.

Or do these things:

• While the person is lying on their back, get down on the ground by their side.

• The arm that is closest to you should be raised, palm facing up, at a right angle to the body.

• The other person should hold their other arm such that the back of it rests on your face.

• Make a straight angle with the knee of the person who is the furthest away from you using your free hand.

• Turn the person onto their side by gently pulling on the bent knee that is facing you.

• Their bent arm should be supporting the head; their extended arm will stop you from rolling them too far.

• Check to see if their bent leg is 90 degrees.

Neurotransmitters would continue to bind and rebind with the postsynaptic receptors, which would continue induction of a signal in the postsynaptic neurons, which would repropagate the initial signal.
