Jorge has fallen and gotten a severe bloody nose. How would you deal with it?
What will be an ideal response?
Pinch the child's nostrils together between your thumb and forefinger, pressing firmly toward his face and compressing the pinched parts against the bones of his face, while wearing gloves. Do this for about 10 minutes. Repeat as necessary for 5 minutes at a time until the nose has stopped bleeding. Do not release your fingers too soon or the clot may break away and bleeding will start again. Do not tilt the child's head back. Have the child sit quietly and tilt the head slightly forward, but keeping the head well above the level of the heart. Do not allow the child to lay flat or put his head between his legs. This will help keep the blood out of the child's stomach and prevent him from getting nauseated or vomiting. Apply ice to the nose and cheeks. Talk quietly and explain the procedure to the child while this is being done.
