Emergency Care: Seizures and Strokes

Question 2 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

What is the most important thing to consider when responding to a person who is having convulsions during a seizure?

Answer
A
providing CPR
B
controlling bleeding
C
preventing the person from moving around too much
D
keeping the person safe from physical injury

Explanation

The main priority during a seizure is to protect the person from injury. Move nearby hazards away and cushion their head if possible, but do not restrain them or try to stop the convulsions. CPR is not the first response while the person is convulsing; keeping them safe from physical injury is the correct choice.
