Explanation:

When we are facing spinal injuries, sudden movements can be lethal, that is why we seek to immobilize the victim and wait for medical personnel to arrive at the site of attention, since if the rescuer makes a bad maneuver when removing the victim of water, even though it is immobilized, it is at risk of suffering future consequences.

First aid care is intended to keep the accident scene in a stable condition until EMS personnel arrive.
