First aid is the initial help that is given to a person with the goal of preserving them as well as possible until they can get more definitive treatment, often at a hospital. Many people also use the term to mean the treatment of minor self limited injuries that need no other treatment, such as small cuts and scratches.

Trauma first aid refers to the unique requirements of caring for a trauma victim as opposed to all the other ways we can get suddenly ill.
