Earthquakes are getting quite common.Given the state of affairs,some of the buildings may collapse.But do we know how to help those who might get trapped under the debris of such buildings?Remember most of the victims in such situation suffer Spinal injuries.Now injured should not be pulled,dragged and carried away.In such a situation Spinal mobilisation is key.The injured person should be placed on hard board with as little movement of neck as possible and taken to the nearest medical centre.
