Some people believe that a needle prick in the ear is the first aid for a stroke. Turns out, the information was wrong. You may have read posts on social media or know information about the method of needling in the earlobe as first aid for stroke. This message even continues to be spread over and over and many still believe it. The message explains how the first action should be taken in stroke patients. If the patient falls like in the bathroom or bedroom, you are advised not to move him anywhere. Next, it is recommended that you take a needle and sterilize it and then insert it into your fingers. After that, spit out the victim's blood a drop or two. Still according to the message, if the patient's mouth is tilted, then pull the two earlobe until they are red and immediately pierce the bottom of the earlobe with a sterile needle until approximately 1-2 drops of blood comes out. This is believed to launch and help oxygen enter the body of stroke patients. What is the medical view regarding this information? Piercing the ear with a needle for a stroke is just a public belief, but has not been scientifically proven. We as nurses must be evidence based. I do not recommend it be done in stroke patients. Correct information must be conveyed, said Ns. Enny Mulyatsih, S.Kep, M.Kep, Sp. KMB, Head of Nursing at the National Brain Center Hospital, told Depok News after a Nursing Seminar and Workshop on Latest Effective Handling Innovations, Education and Home Care Opportunities for Stroke Patients by the Madaniah Health Training Center at the Nursing Sciences Clump, University of Indonesia, Saturday (22/8/ 2015). Ns. Dede Suhartini, S.Kep as the Head of the Stroke Unit of the RSCM also did not find a rational link between needling in the earlobe and stroke. What does this have to do with a stroke whose blood vessels are deprived of oxygen, and the blood is expelled? No data yet. If there is evidence based and results, we can do it, he said. Both emphasize, if you find a family member or someone having a stroke, immediately take first aid measures. Find a place that is roomy and safe, lie down with the patient's head at a 30-degree angle, and maintain a smooth airway by supporting the chin and not giving food or drink to prevent choking. Perform first aid on the way to the hospital. The first aid was proven to be able to maintain a smooth airway before the patient was taken to the hospital to be fitted with infusion and oxygen. Public road officers in Indonesia should be given first aid training against stroke attacks, such as traffic police, firefighters, and toll road officers, as well as the general public, concluded Enny.
