ENLISTED AVIATION WARFARE SPECIALIST (EAWS)
COMMON CORE EXAM GRADED A+
Objects of First Aid ANS >> Prevent further injury, infection,
and loss of life
Four methods to control bleeding ANS >> Direct Pressure,
elevation, pressure points, tourniquet as last resort.
Pressure point ANS >> Point on the body where a main artery
lies near the skin surface and over a bone.
Amount of pressure points ANS >> 11
Location of pressure points ANS >> Temple, jaw, neck, collar
bone, inner upper arm, inner elbow, wrist, upper thigh, groin,
knee, ankle
,ENLISTED AVIATION WARFARE SPECIALIST (EAWS)
First degree burns ANS >> Produces redness, warmth and mild
pain
Second degree burn ANS >> Causes red, blistered skin and
severe pain
Third degree burn ANS >> Destroys tissue, skin and bone in
severe cases. Sever pain may be absent due to nerve endings
being destroyed

protrusion
Closed/Simple fracture ANS >> Broken bone without skin break

grasping and pointing to the throat, exaggerated breathing
efforts, skin turning bluish colour

Septic shock ANS >> Bacteria multiplying in the blood and
releasing toxins.
, ENLISTED AVIATION WARFARE SPECIALIST (EAWS)
Anaphylactic shock ANS >> Sever hypersensitivity or allergic
reaction
Cardiogenic shock ANS >> When the heart is damaged and
unable to supply sufficient blood to the body
Hypovolemic shock ANS >> Severe blood and fluid loss, which
makes the heart unable to pump enough blood to the body.
Neurogenic shock ANS >> Spinal cord injury
Purpose of CPR ANS >> To "buy time" until normal heart
function is restored
