SAFELY POSITION THE CASUALTY TO OPEN THE AIRWAY
3-1. Techniques to safely position an adult casualty who is unconscious and does not appear to be breathing include the following:
Roll the casualty onto his back, if necessary, and place him on a hard, flat surface. Kneel beside the casualty. Raise the near arm and straighten it out above the head. Adjust the legs so they are together and straight or nearly straight. Place one hand on the back of the casualty’s head and neck. Grasp the casualty under the arm with the free hand. Pull steadily and evenly toward yourself, keeping the head and neck in line with the torso. Roll the casualty as a single unit. Place the casualty’s arms at his sides.
OPENING THE AIRWAY
3-2. If foreign material or vomit is in the mouth, remove it as quickly as possible.
HEAD-TILT CHIN-LIFT METHOD 3-3.
OR
JAW-THRUST METHOD
HEAD-TILT CHIN-LIFT METHOD
3-3. To open the airway using the head-tilt chin-lift method—
Kneel at the level of the casualty’s shoulders. Place one hand on the casualty’s forehead and apply firm, backward pressure with the palm to tilt the head back. Place the fingertips of the other hand under the bony part of the lower jaw and lift, bringing the chin forward. Do not use the thumb to lift. Do not completely close the casualty’s mouth. Do not press deeply into the soft tissue under the chin with the fingers.
JAW-THRUST METHOD
3-4. To open the airway using the jaw thrust method—
Note. Use this method if a spinal or neck injury is suspected. If you are unable to maintain an airway after the second attempt, use the head-tilt chin-lift method. Do not tilt or rotate the casualty’s head.
Kneel above the casualty’s head (looking toward the casualty’s feet). Rest your elbows on the ground or floor. Place one hand on each side of the casualty’s lower jaw at the angle of the jaw, below the ears. Stabilize the casualty’s head with your forearms. Use the index fingers to push the angles of the casualty’s lower jaw forward.
CHECK FOR BREATHING
3-5. While maintaining the open airway position, place an ear over the casualty’s mouth and nose, looking toward the chest and stomach. Look for the chest to rise and fall. Listen for air escaping during exhalation. Feel for the flow of air on the side of your face. Count the number of respirations for 15 seconds. Take appropriate action.
NPA
3-6. If the casualty is unconscious, if respiratory rate is less than 2 in 15 seconds, and/or if the casualty is making snoring or gurgling sounds, insert an NPA. Keep the casualty in a face-up position. Lubricate the tube of the NPA with water. Push the tip of the casualty’s nose upward gently. Position the tube of the NPA so that the bevel (pointed end) of the NPA faces toward the septum (the partition inside the nose that separates the nostrils). Most NPAs are designed to be placed in the right nostril.
Insert the NPA into the nostril and advance it until the flange rests against the nostril.
3-2 TC 4-02.1 21 January 2016
CAUTION Do not use the nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) if there is clear fluid (cerebrospinal fluid) coming from the ears or nose. This may indicate a skull fracture.
CAUTION Never force the NPA into the casualty’s nostril. If resistance is met, pull the tube out and attempt to insert it in the other nostril. If neither nostril will accommodate the NPA, place the casualty in the recovery position.
Open the Airway (081-COM-1023)
Place the casualty in the recovery position by rolling him as a single unit onto his side, placing the hand of his upper arm under his chin, and flexing his upper leg. Watch the casualty closely for life-threatening conditions and check for other injuries, if necessary.
