Check awareness
When you find someone lying unconscious with conditions such as yourself, please make checks consciousness. The easiest way is by tapping the patient's shoulder, as she asks his identity. For example, ask his name. If the patient answers, then the conditions are still conscious.

Give pain stimuli
If the patient does not respond to a pat on the shoulder or question her identity, sign the patient unconscious self. The next step is to provide a pain stimulus with menyubitnya.

Search help
If the pain stimuli did not also make the patient unconscious, seek immediate help.

"Shouts for help, or call the ER, immediately ask for help," advises Heru, when practice handling emergencies in Bunda Hospital Jakarta.

Check breath
The next step make sure the patient's breathing. Put your ear to the patient's face. Feel the breath, listening for breath, even snoring patients. The voices indicates the patient is still breathing.

If you find a patient sounds like gargling, sign a lot of fluid that disrupt breathing. Immediately do a steady position (recovery position) by tilting the patient's body so that the liquid flows downward.
