If they are breathing you should be able to hear and feel the air coming out of their nose and mouth aswell as seeing their chest moving up and down in time. 3.If the patient isn't breathing (after checking) then you will need to get an experienced person to do CPR - if you are unexperienced DO NOT TRY as you could injure the patient-call for help
Should the temperature of an unconcious person be taken orally since they aren't moving about?
Taking the temperature orally with a glass thermometer, when the patient is unconscious is risky, as the patient may suddenly wake up and bite and break the thermometer. Apart from the glass splinters, a mercury thermometer is a great hazard. The temperature could be more safely taken from the armpit, or anus, with less risk. Nowadays, most hospitals take temperatures using electronic devices that are placed into or near the external part of the ear, or are clipped to the finger and registered onto a computer like console.
