Key Wellness Strategies and First Aid Tips for Helping Someone Who Faints:

• Understanding Fainting (Syncope):
  • Fainting is a sudden, temporary loss of consciousness due to reduced blood flow to the brain.
  • Common causes include:
    • Excessive Vagus nerve reaction
    • Sudden changes in blood pressure (often from sudden position changes)
    • Anemia
    • Dehydration
    • Hypoglycemic shock
• Symptoms Before Fainting:
  • Dizziness with flashing eyes
  • Heart palpitations
  • Nausea or vomiting sensation
  • Ringing in ears
  • Pale skin and cold sweat
  • Lightheadedness
• First Aid Steps When Someone Faints:
  1. Lay the victim flat in a comfortable, shady, and uncrowded place.
  2. Raise the victim’s legs 15 to 30 cm above the head to improve blood flow to the brain.
  3. Loosen tight clothing around the neck and waist.
  4. If vomiting is imminent, tilt the head to the side to allow vomit to exit safely.
  5. Apply cold or plain water compresses to the head to help normalize body temperature.
  6. Use a pungent smell (e.g., alcohol or Eucalyptus oil) near the nose to stimulate consciousness.
  7. Once conscious, help the victim sit up slowly and offer a drink.
  8. Check for injuries from the fall.
• What NOT to Do:
  • Do not raise the head.
  • Avoid moving the victim if spinal injury is suspected.
  • Do not give fluids or food by mouth until the victim is fully conscious.
  • Do not slap the victim to wake them.
  • Avoid pouring water on the victim’s face.
• Distinguishing Fainting from Shock:
  • In shock:
    • Pulse is weak and fast.
    • Breathing is faster and shallower.
  • In fainting:
    • Breathing is usually normal.
    • Pulse slows initially then quickly increases.
