how can we save ourselves if the elevator fails?
on-site judgment:
1. the elevator fails and stops running.
2. the elevator operation suddenly accelerated.
3. the elevator is running abnormally or has a smell of coke.
treatment mechanism:
in the limited space of elevators, the amount of oxygen is also limited, and the body consumes less oxygen in calm, so try to keep it calm, so that trapped people will not suffocate due to lack of oxygen in a short time. when the elevator descends sharply, trapped persons are prone to physical injury after landing in a state of weightlessness, and even have multiple fractures throughout the body. therefore, the entire back and head should be tightly attached to the inner wall of the elevator compartment. the trunk should be used to protect the spine and the lower limbs should be curved.
first aid steps:
(a) elevator failure, stop running
1. calmness: keep calm and do not take drastic actions, such as chaos, etc., adjust your breathing, and inhale and exhale as smoothly and slowly as possible.
2. for help: use the phone or walkie-talkie in the elevator to contact the outside world, but also press the bell alarm on the dial. if the mobile phone has a signal, the trapped person can dial 119 and ask the firefighter for help. in addition, you can scream at the door, or take off your shoes and take a hard shot to promptly transmit the distress signal.
3. waiting for rescue: when professionals come to rescue, they must follow the command of the rescue personnel and cooperate with rescue operations to ensure safety.
(b) when the speed of the elevator suddenly increases
1. press each button to press each floor button. if there is an emergency power source, it can be immediately pressed. after the emergency power source starts, the elevator can immediately stop falling.
2. self-protection: keep the entire back and head close to the inner wall of the elevator and use the elevator wall to protect the spine. at the same time, the lower limbs are curved, and the toes and the heels are lifted to reduce the cushioning force. hold your neck with your hands and avoid neck injuries.
emergency treatment:
the elevator stopped suddenly and feared, and the phone patted the emergency door.
with the rescue to be obedient, press the layers of buttons quickly.
the back of the head is close to the elevator wall, and the hand holds the neck half under the armpit.
