Fits : Fits of various kinds may be accompanied by unconsciousness, and are usually characterized by the casualty being unaware of his/her reactions. You should remember the following points in relation to fits.

(1) Clear movable objects away from the vicinity of the casualty; e.g. stools, chairs, bottles, etc.

(2) Pull the patient away only if he/she is in potential danger from stairs, cables, fires, etc.

(3) Never try to open the casualty's mouth.

(4) After the fits, allow the casualty to rest.

(5) Never leave the casualty unattended.

(6) Take a padded spoon and put the handle in between teeth to prevent tongue-biting during fits.

(7) Transfer the casualty to safe and shady place till the help is received.
