Shock moment in the mountains: injured in the case of tobogganing accident!

A serious skiing accident occurred on February 8, 2025 when a skier plunged on a toboggan run in the Kufstein region around 1 p.m. The Kufstein mountain rescue was quickly on site to recover the injured victim from near the slopes. After the rescue, the woman was transported to the Kala Alm with a emergency vehicle, where an emergency helicopter, "Heli 3", the injured skier flew to the Rosenheim hospital. A total of four members of the mountain rescue and the entire crew of the helicopter were deployed, which underlines the fast and effective rescue use, as Tirol.ORF reports.

The organization and implementation of first aid measures is of the utmost importance in such emergency situations. According to the recommendations of the Maltese, it is important to first get an overview of the condition of the accident victim. Questions such as the responsibility of the victim, the stability of pulse and breathing as well as the presence of visible injuries are crucial. First aid should be initiated in parallel to the emergency call as possible. In the event of unconsciousness and stable vital signs, it is advisable to bring the victim into the stable side position and to immediately alert mountain rescue.

It becomes urgent when the patient no longer breathes: In such cases, the cardiac massage and, if necessary, mouth-to-mouth ventilation should be started immediately. The right action can save lives, especially in crisis situations where every minute counts. Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, many first aiders have concerns about possible contagion; However, you can also carry out the cardiac massage without interruptions, which represents a valuable alternative, as explained in more detail in the article by the Maltese. It is crucial that the rescue team is informed before an even greater medical emergency and can intervene immediately.
