Child safety and first aid training content record form

The core of this training content record for guardians and early childhood education practitioners of children aged 3-12 years old is "abandoning redundant theories and leaving only risk prevention and control and first-aid operation methods that can be directly implemented." All contents have been verified by pediatric emergency physicians and front-line practitioners of child safety education. It has covered more than 120 community and kindergarten trainings, and has been adjusted and updated to the 7th edition after practical feedback.

Just one week after the training at the Chengxi Community Field last month, an Aunt Zhang, who was in her 60s, sent us a WeChat message saying that when she was picking up her grandson from school, her child slipped a longan into his mouth and his face turned purple. She used the Heimlich maneuver she learned on the spot and punched it twice, and the longan spurted out. If it had been delayed, she would have been so panicked that she ran to the hospital with her child in her arms, which might have been delayed. The first thing you see when you look through this record is not a dense list of first aid procedures, but a three-page review of high-frequency risk scenarios highlighted with highlighters. They are all the most common accident causes that we have compiled from more than 20 pediatric emergency rooms: such as the elderly casualties. Antihypertensive pills on the coffee table, button batteries left in the cracks of the sofa, unfixed anti-slip mats in the bathroom, disinfectant alcohol in mineral water bottles... These seemingly inconspicuous things account for more than 60% of unexpected emergency department visits among children. A mother told us before that the first thing she did when she came home from training was to put the Jiuxin Pills that her grandma had placed on the coffee table into the medicine box high up. When she turned around, she saw her 2-year-old son climbing up the coffee table on a stool. Now she is still scared when she thinks about it.

Of course, no matter how good the prevention and control work is, there will inevitably be omissions. We have revised and revised the first-aid operation part in the record, and even specially marked the different guidance opinions of different institutions next to it to avoid becoming absolute. Take the Heimlich maneuver as an example. There has been quite a controversy in the industry before: one group believes that children over 3 years old can be taught simple self-rescue actions, such as leaning on the corner of the table and pressing their stomachs when their throat is stuck. The other group believes that children cannot control their strength well, but may push the foreign object deeper and even injure internal organs. We did not directly delete either one, but wrote down the applicable scenarios for both views: If there is an emergency without adults around, trained children can try to save themselves. If there are adults present, it is more prudent for adults to give priority to the operation. By the way, for babies under 1 year old, we have specially marked the reminder with a red box: Abdominal thrusts are not allowed. Pat the back 5 times, then turn over and press the chest with two fingers 5 times. Repeat this alternately. Don’t make a mistake and injure the child’s delicate internal organs.

There is also the most common misunderstanding about the treatment of burns and scalds. There was a lot of quarrel on the Internet before. Some people said that you should never apply anything on it and can only take a shower with cold water. Others said that applying some aloe vera gel to mild burns would be fine. Our records are very practical: If the skin is only red but not broken, and there is no running cold water around, it is okay to use a clean cold towel or even refrigerated aloe vera gel to temporarily relieve the pain. But as soon as a blister occurs, immediately rinse it with running cold water for more than 15 minutes. Don't apply anything and go directly to the hospital. Don't believe the old saying that toothpaste and soy sauce can disinfect. Last time we saw a baby in the pediatric emergency department, and my arm was burned and I applied half a tube of toothpaste. When I went to the hospital to clean it, I cried in pain, which actually increased the risk of infection. As for the cardiopulmonary resuscitation operation that people ask about most, we have long since changed those numerical requirements of a few centimeters into more intuitive judgment criteria: the compression depth is about 1/3 of the thickness of the child's chest wall, about the length of your thumb, and the frequency is based on the beat of "Little Apple", which is much easier to remember than memorizing numbers.

There is an inconspicuous assessment registration column at the end of this record. We do not test you on memorizing knowledge points, but are all scored on on-site practical exercises: use a simulation doll to set up scenarios for you, such as a child getting stuck in the throat by jelly, getting an electric shock, or falling off a slide and unable to move his arms. See if you can respond correctly within 3 seconds. If you make a mistake, you will correct it on the spot until you get it right. To be honest, we have tried to do written exams before, but parents with perfect scores still panic when something happens when they go back. It is not as useful as practicing it several times. It is like teaching a novice to drive. You don’t need to know how to turn the engine. You only need to step on the brakes and turn the direction.

Oh, yes, there is a half-page blank remarks column at the end. In every training, we will ask students to write down the problems they encounter or the risks their children are often exposed to. For example, last month a parent who drove a new energy vehicle asked what to do if his child was locked in the car. This week we added emergency methods for trapped new energy vehicles. In the next edition of records, there are still many people asking whether pets should be vaccinated for scratches. We have also listed the CDC's "skin-breaking vaccination" specification and the applicable conditions of the ten-day observation method. After all, every family's situation is different. There is no standard that is universally applicable. The most important thing is that it is easy to use and can save lives.
