Fits are scary enough as it is. They can occur
anywhere at any time and leave the patient in a
terrible state, for there is not much he/she can do
to stop it.
Though fits can’t be predicted, some simple
practices can help out a person who suffers from
them. It is important to be well aware of these
practices if you live with someone who suffers
from frequent fits as they may be the difference
between life and death.
Before we go on further, it is important to learn
more about seizures, fits, and other neural
problems that occur in a patient. Check out more
blogs by Dr.Shailesh Jain here and read up on
essential practices to curb neurological problems.
Remain Calm
It is tough to see someone experience a fit
and not act panicky, but that’s what you
have to do. Remain calm and follow the
procedures that you have learned.
Act With Ease
If a person is having a violent seizure, gently
lay them down on a bed or a couch or even
the floor if nothing is available and remove
any sharp objects from the surroundings. Put
a pillow or some soft padding under their
head. Remove glasses if the person is
wearing one and loosen the collar, tie, etc.
DON’T Try to Stop Their Movements
Don’t ever try to stop their jerky movements or
give them CPR while they are experiencing a
seizure. Let them fight it out and remain calm.
Check the Patient
Gently check the patient for a medical bracelet
that may indicate whether they have previous
neurological or medical problems. If they do
happen to have a medical bracelet, read it properly
and call an ambulance accordingly. Time the length
of their seizure as well.
Call an Ambulance if the Seizure
Lasts for More Than 5 Minutes
A seizure that lasts for more than 5 minutes is
extremely dangerous and an ambulance must be
called immediately.
DON’T Give Them Food
Don’t give the person food or water until you are
sure they are under full control of their body and
coordination. They might choke on the given
food which will lead to even further
complications.
DON’T Act Like They are a Mental
Patient
Don’t make a person who has experienced a fit like a
danger or threat. Remain there to calm yourself and
the other person, and after their fit has ended, take
them to a corner and calmly explain what just
happened to them. Talk to them to make them feel
better and have the person feel relaxed. Ask about
his/her seizure history and whether they want to call
a doctor or not.
Leave Only When the Person has
Fully Recovered
It is essential to ensure that a person who has just
experienced a fit has complete coordination of
his/her body afterward. Stay with them until they
are feeling alright and call an ambulance if they
are not.
