Education Bureau: Teachers with First Aid Certificates have performed CPR immediately

The Education Bureau responded to the inquiry that the student felt uncomfortable and fainted during the warm-up exercise in the sports hall. The school immediately called the 999 report center to call an ambulance. During this period, a teacher with a first aid certificate and under the instructions of the 999 report center Immediately apply the cardiopulmonary resuscitation to the student, and the school also notified the Education Bureau about the accident after the incident.

If you wear a mask to hinder breathing, students may have dizziness and have hidden heart People who are ill will have a higher risk of morbidity, and it is reasonable to not wear a mask.

Approved Education Bureau guidelines are unclear

The chance of survival is higher, and if the AED shock is delayed by 1 minute, the survival rate will be reduced by 7 to 10%. If the delay is more than 10 minutes, the survival rate is only 5%. Yuan Weijie believes that if the school has an AED machine, more teaching staff should try to learn how to use it. If necessary, first aid can be provided as soon as possible.

According to the Education Bureau, the guidelines for conducting physical activities after resuming classes are based on the “Health Guidelines for Preventing Coronary Virus Diseases from Returning to Schools in Coronary Virus Diseases in 2019” and the “Guidelines for the Safety of Physical Education in Hong Kong Schools”. Issued to the school day. The guidelines also recommend that before physical education classes, students should pay attention to whether their physical conditions are suitable for physical activities. During the class, teachers should also adjust the amount of exercise and exercise intensity in accordance with the physical conditions of the students, and remind students to step by step according to their personal abilities. Increase the intensity of activities.

If students have fever or symptoms of respiratory tract infection, they should stop exercising, wear masks and seek medical advice as soon as possible. After physical education, teachers should also remind students to have enough rest and add enough water.
