In a first aid context, the modern thinking is that you usually don't want to revive a victim you discover that's unconscious unless you know why they're unconscious. You don't really know why they're unconscious, and many (including me) feel that unconsciousness is a protection for the victim in some cases. Gently shaking the victim (if I assume no spinal injury) and calling to them is about as far as I want to go, just to see if they'll revive on their own. If you know why they're unconscious, and you DO want to revive them, smelling salts (ammonium carbonate) works really well. Break the ampule and wave it briefly under their nose -- don't leave it there. If it doesn't work quickly, stop. Here are some unconscious victim ideas and concepts: * Do check for massive bleeding and control it. * Do check for vital signs. If they need CPR, do that before all else. * DONT slap them (doesn't this even Sound dumb?) * Don't give them something to drink -- unconscious people don't do that well. * Don't get them a pillow * Do consider turning their head to the side so, if they vomit, they don't aspirate it (don't do this if you suspect serious neck or back injuries). * Don't leave them alone. The use of drugs to revive unconscious patients, other than what I've covered here, is beyond the role of First Aid.
