May 14 at 5:00 p.m

On a bus in Nanjing

The male driver was in front of many passengers

Suddenly facing the heel of a female passenger

Bite hard & hellip; & hellip;

On the same day, a 40 year old female passenger on Nanjing no.817 bus suddenly fainted in the car and was unconscious.

Enthusiastic passenger and driver Cao Zhuangyuan rushed to save people. After trying to nip people, nip tiger mouth and other methods, the female passenger still did not wake up.

Cao Zhuangyuan was quick witted. He thought that similar situations had happened in his family in the past. Someone bit the patient's heel to stimulate his nerves and help him wake up.

Rescuing a patient is a race against time. "If you can't get bored, bite her heel!" master Cao immediately took several bites from the heel of the female passenger.

In order to prevent the female passenger from biting her tongue, the enthusiastic passenger and master Cao successively put their fingers into the female passenger's mouth to rescue her with pain.

More than ten minutes later, the female passenger gradually regained consciousness, while the fingers of master Cao and the enthusiastic passenger had been bitten purple. After 120 emergency doctors initially speculated that the female passenger may have had an epileptic attack at that time.

Is there any scientific basis for biting heel to save people?

Doctors from Nanjing emergency center said that the practice of biting the heel is actually to wake up the patient by giving pain stimulation. This practice has certain truth in some cases. But for patients with epilepsy, most of the time the role is not big, is not the right first aid. The correct way to save epilepsy patients is to protect them from secondary injury

1. Put the epileptic patients in a relatively open place to prevent injury during convulsion;

2. Put a corner of the clothes or towel into the mouth of the patient to prevent the patient from biting the tongue. But don't put your fingers into the mouth of the patient to avoid being bitten, and don't put hard things into the mouth of the patient;

3. If the patient has clenched his teeth, don't force him to open his mouth.
