Paranoia & First Aid, Period 5, 21 May '08

The Danger Shop looked blue-lit, the room stretching off pale into the distance, a few stools and covered trolleys near Mohinder. Looking up at the group of students from his position - sitting, balanced on his ankles, with a plastic, dressed, human-sized figure in front of him, and said, "Today, resuscitation of an unconscious, non-breathing adult."

"First make sure the airway," he tilted the figure's head back, "is clear. Check for breathing, and circulation." Mohinder held two fingers to the pulse of his throat. "If you find either of these on the dummy's, let me know."

"Else you need to perform CPR." Mohinder quickly went through the basics, lacing his hands together to force the compressions and exhaling into the dummy's mouth.

He stood, picking up a defibrilator paddle from the trolley, "You're unlikely to find these outside a hospital setting, but once you've tried manual resuscitation, anyone who wants to practice with one of these is welcome to."

[OCD is up!]

Doing what you're doing.

Chris took notes and paid close attention.

Johnny paid attention and jotted down a few notes.

Try the manual first, singly or in pairs, then try the defib.

Standing over the dummy, Johnny began the steps necessary to resuscitate.

Yes, Savannah did indeed check to make sure the dummy didn't have a pulse.

When she's here.

Adah had watched the class with far too much amusement, even having the duck her head for a breathy snort of a laugh once the defibrillator paddles were brought out. Still, she'd have it be known that she actually could perform a pretty mean CPR for having only partial use of one of her arms, if anyone was interested in learning an alternate that involved performing it after your arm had been hacked off.

...Of course, considering the first word in the class' title, she'd be polite and not mention any of that.

Who's packing up after class.

There are so many ways to mispell resuscitation, I swear.
