if someone faints but they hit busted their leg which injury should you prioritize.. The busted leg or the faint. Should you elevate the legs still? And put them in recovery or should you appendage them differently

i would prioritise the fearful because the fearful is a neurological problem, and the leg is ultimate a busted leg if the mortal faints because of a stroke or anything then they will undergo mentality damage, this needs to be prioritised

Life over limb most important is to check breathing preform CPR if ness, then impact the handicap if u do not hit time to impact handicap before meds arrive that is ok, If u do get a response ready the mortal warm improve the un injured handicap and make the busted one as comfies as possible but ever member the saying LIFE OVER LIMB.. Keeping the mortal alive is more important then the breakage of any limb

It's all situational. What kind of fracture is it? Did they hit their nous on the way down (if they did, we've got a ton of other problems to deal with)? WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THE FAINTING? Any medical history? Stroke history? Age? How long has he/she been down? I could go on forever. Like I said, it's all situational. I'd check their ABC's. Airway/Breathing/Circulation. If something's criminal with the ABC's, propellor the broken leg, that won't directly affect their life. If it's simply syncope (fainting), then I'd take appropriate measures to treat the broken leg. It can't hurt elevating the superior leg. Once again, it depends on the situation. I'd probably really look hard into ground the fainting occurred, ensure organ are okay, and then treat the leg. Where I separate calls we have 5 or 6 grouping on a environs like this! 2 on an ambulance and 3 or 4 on a fire engine. In actuality here's what would happen 1: Obtaining information and history 1 or 2: Obtaining vital signs 1 or 2: Treating leg 1 or 2 treating the fainting Reality is a lot different than the textbook way of doing things. As you can see, we'd have a lot of grouping treating this patent, sterilisation both the fainting and the fracture at the same time.

Putting people's legs up rattling doesn't do every that much. If you had a broken handicap would you want anybody to be moving it around? Plus they probably "fainted" because the handicap hurts so much.
