“…The most serious of injuries can leave no apparent bleeding or potential life-threatening signs; by using a structured or methodical approach to the assessment process these types of injury can be identified and life altering damage prevented. This is achieved by applying the airway, breathing and circulation (ABC) approach to all client assessments (Evans and Tippins 2008) . To be done studies had been indicated that death to happen after an accident first five minutes (35 %), first thirty minutes (54 %).…”

Objectives: A descriptive study was designed to assess of Mosul university students' knowledge about first aid, and to assess the university students' knowledge about first aid cases (respiratory systems, circulatory systems, bleeding, trauma, burns, fractures, bites and stings ). Methodology: A random sample was used for selecting (124) participants. The sample consisted of (62) students of the college of science, as well as (62) students in the college of education of the fourth stage of Mosul University. The study started in the 1st of December 2011 to the 15th of April 2012. Internal consistency of the questionnaire was assessed by calculating Coefficient Correlation which was (r = 0.80), and the statistical analysis organized by (SPSS, version 11). Results: The present study found the majority of the students in the study (91.9 %) have not participated in the first aid courses, also (96%) found the necessity for lean to the first aid activity. The result indicated to (46%) the knowledge level of the first aid, (45%) the knowledge level of the first aid cases, and the percentage of the first aid cases as a following: the respiratory systems (25%), the circulatory system (24%), the bleeding (58%), the trauma (38%), the burns (51%), the fractures (66%), and the bites and stings cases (53%). Conclusion: Majority of the students have not participated in the first aid course, and observe it is necessary to learn the first aid activity. While a high percentage of the false answers about meaning of the first aid. In addition, the result reveals a high percentage of the participated students had false answers or they do not know the first aid about the respiratory systems, the circulatory system, the trauma, the burns, and bites and stings. But the results reveal there is a high percentage of the students had true answers about the first aid of the bleeding and the fractures.

“…The established primary drug treatments for anaphylaxis are epinephrine and H 1 -antihistamines, whereas corticosteroids are mainly effective in preventing biphasic reactions. 9) The source of the gelatin for the gelatin-thrombin matrix as well as the manufacturing process of the gelatin granules is certified according to the bovine spongiform encephalopathy safety regulations in the U.S.A. and the European Union (EU), which has the strongest safety requirements in regard to Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease transmission risk. The safety concerning bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) of the gelatin granules has recently been recertified based on the new EU regulation for bovine derived materials as being BSE safe (personal communication, Baxter Biosurgery AG: FloSeal  Safety Considerations.…”

The present study evaluated the hemostatic efficacy and handling of gelatin-thrombin matrix hemostatic sealant during intracranial procedures. A retrospective analysis of 478 consecutive patients undergoing intracranial procedures identified seven patients with acute intense or persistent intraoperative bleeding which could not be arrested in time by standard hemostatic methods. The efficacy of gelatinthrombin matrix was assessed by determining bleeding severity before and after application, time to hemostasis, amount of gelatin-thrombin matrix necessary, need for additional hemostatic measures, and need for reoperation to control hemorrhage. Immediate hemostasis was achieved in five of seven patients. Two of these five patients had abnormal clotting parameters. Cessation of bleeding was achieved by additionally applying either fibrinogen or gelatin sponge to the bleeding site in the other two patients. No complications attributable to gelatin-thrombin matrix use were recorded. The gelatinthrombin matrix was ready to use within 1 minute in every case. Gelatin-thrombin matrix appears to be an effective, easy-to-use, and readily available hemostatic agent for cranial neurosurgery. Combination with fibrinogen is recommended in special situations.
