-3rd degree: full thickness- leathery, waxy, or pearly gray skin that appears charred
Briefly explain appropriate management/return to play for concussion: - ANS-- do light aerobic
activities in the early stages of the concussion
- Back to regular activities (such as school) as long as the subject's symptoms do not seem to

-Continue with moderate activities to increase an athlete's heart rate with body or head
movement
- Add heavy non-contact physical activity, such as sprinting/running, high-intensity stationary
biking, regular weightlifting routine, non-contact sport-specific drills.
- Practice & full contact and then competition.
Compression to rescue breaths ration - ANS-30 compressions per 2 breaths
CPR Compression depth adults - ANS-2-2.4 in

Define a dislocation - ANS-Joint comes apart and stays apart (bone ends not connected)
Define a fracture/break: - ANS-Break or crack in bone
Define a sprain: - ANS-Joint is twisted or moves more than its normal range of motion
Define a strain - ANS-Muscle is stretched beyond normal range of motion
How many hands for CPR (Adults) - ANS-2 hands
How many hands for CPR (child) - ANS-1 or 2 hands
