🔍 Key Concepts

• Traumatic shock: what happens to blood flow and body temperature after a serious injury • Basic first aid for shock: position of the victim, movement, and temperature control • What actions would increase the body’s stress and oxygen demand vs. what would reduce it

💭 Think About

• Which option best helps the body maintain blood flow to vital organs without making the heart work harder? • In a real emergency, which actions would keep the victim calm, still, and with a stable body temperature? • Which choices might actually worsen shock by causing more heat loss, stress, or physical exertion?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice keeps the victim lying down and at rest • Check which option helps maintain body warmth instead of cooling the body • Eliminate any option that increases activity, stress, or unnecessary movement for the injured person
