Edukasi Pertolongan Pertama pada Sinkope di MAN 1 Banyumas

Abstract

The sudden and often temporary loss of consciousness known as syncope is caused by a reduced supply of blood and oxygen to the brain. Students at all levels of education, especially those whose schools hold Monday ceremonies, are at higher risk of syncope due to prolonged exposure to the sun. Careful provision of first aid to those who faint is necessary due to the potential for major complications.
