RE: SLC21/WK5: Choking and Airway Obstruction: A Complete Guide to Life-Saving First Aid Techniques
Student Name: @memamun
Overall grade: 6.6
Plagiarism Check: Pass
AI Use: No
| Question | What the Student Did Well | Areas for Improvement | Grading |
|---|---|---|---|
| Question 1 | Provided what are the changes in a body that causes partial airway obstruction compared to complete airway obstruction. | There are a few shortcomings in this question as you didn't mention what causes these sort of obstructions. Some people are allergic to certain edibles which may cause sudden partial or complete obstruction whereas some people might have something stuck in their airway passage. | [Grade: 1.8] |
| Question 2 | Outlined the approach of performing a Heimlich maneuver. | The student has a few shortcomings in this question. Important term of 'thrusting' is missing. The term 'hitting' is used which is not the right way Remember, during the Heimlich maneuver, upward movement of the hand is not necessary, but upward thrust are of utmost priority with force as it will help in clearing the airway obstruction. The student also failed to mention the position of the hand, ie, to make it a fist and then hold it tightly from the other hand. The number of thrusts are also missing. | [Grade: 1.5] |
| Question 3 | Listed the steps of managing an emergency choking scenario. | You never 'shout' for medical assistance. This will create further panic and that's the last thing you want in this situation. The answer is too concise. How would you know whether the person is conscious or not? What are the signs of shock? The explanation could have been elaborated further for instance , the first step would always be to assess the situation. Would you start the Heimlich maneuver straight away or would you wait for the choking person to clear the obstruction on his own first by coughing? How many thrusts would you give? You mentioned CPR. How many compressions? You also haven't mentioned how to remove the obstruction. | [Grade: 0.8] |
| Question 4 | The student managed to present an infographic. Infographics in the medicine field serve as important tool for having access to more information in a single place. These are typically necessary to have as a first aider. | [Grade: 2.5] |
General Feedback: The student needs to focus more on the details of the questions separately and come up with detailed answers which would be beneficial for him in the future as well.
Thank you.
