#Cpr

[thesomebodywho]

Even if we have to make a deal with the devil and harness the dark powers of capitalism, I think we need more types of CPR training dolls. In my mind there could be demand for those.

There are countless different body types, yet we only have CPR dolls for lean men, babies and dogs. (After the quickest Google-search in the west.)

Quality first aid should not be a privilege reserved only for thin people.

To add a few more CPR (and first aid) tips I remember:

Defibrillators in public places, (at least in Finland), are almost always capable of giving instructions. Never be afraid of using one in an emergency.

During CPR mouth-to-mouth is not necessary. Interrupting the chest compressions can actually increase the chances of death. The secondary benefit is that this lowers the threshold of giving CPR. (I myself would feel pretty disappointed to receive herpes as a prize for attempting to save a life.)

Everyone should learn the recovery position (aka. NATO-position/semi-prone). Unconscious people are at a risk of choking on their own fluids or due to not being able to keep their airways open. (This is especially critical if someone passes out after heavy drinking.)

If you are the first person to take initiative during an emergency do not ask "someone" to do anything. Always give orders to specific people. Many people may be in shock and respond better to specific orders instead of vague suggestions others might just be passive and think that someone else will do it. You could, for example, point at someone and tell them to call the emergency number. In addition, you could identify them by a piece of clothing. "Hey! You in the red coat, fetch the defibrillator from under the escalator!"

Last but not least when the EMTs arrive, follow their orders, answer any questions they have and give them all the space they need.

(These are from memory. Feel free to correct me.)

This is not like a fully completed thought but yk

So I've done my first aid + CPR a few times. And every single time I try and bring up scenarios for fat folks

Specifically like 'what if someone is too large for me to wrap my arms around then to do the heimleich'

And its incredibly rare I get a decent answer.

How absolutely insane is it that me, as a fat person, is asking how to have MY life saved or to save ANOTHER life, is an impossible feat if someone is fat.

Most of the time they tell me to 'just try anyways uwu'

There has got to be a better option.

Duckie Deer Prompt #32

Alphabet Prompt #10: Jolt

1, 2, 3, 4--

"Breathe! Breathe! Breathe! C'mon, dad! C'mon!!"

"Charlie, try and stay calm. He might be able to save him!"

14, 15, 16--

Alastor pushed his interlaced palms rhythmically into Lucifer's unmoving chest. Charlie was trying to keep her hysterics under control while Vaggie tried her best to soothe her. She was also on standby to take over in case Alastor got too tired to continue.

"-29, 30!"

He bent over, tipped the angel's head back, pinched his nose closed and breathed long and deep, filling Lucifer's lungs with life giving air.

"One!" Another breath. "Two--"

Lucifer coughed weakly, taking a shaky breath, the first on his own in over three minutes.

"He's breathing!"

Charlie dashed to her dad's side, wanting so badly to hug him tight but knew that it wouldn't do him any good until his breathing stabilized more. Instead, she cradled him gently, brushing her hands through his hair while her tears of relief fell onto his cheeks like fresh rain.

A weak smile from Lucifer. "Hey, Char Char."

Then his gaze fell to Alastor who was slipping back into his jacket. "You know...CPR is...a lot less sexy...than movies make it...seem. I think you...cracked my ribs."

Alastor couldn't restrain the barking laugh that ripped through him.
