Correct answer
- AAflojarles las prendas y ropas que puedan oprimir el cuello o las vías respiratorias.Loosen any clothing that may press on the neck or airway.
Loosening any clothing that may press on the neck or airway is essential so that the injured person can breathe easily and so that no obstruction makes their condition worse. In an emergency it is crucial to make sure the airway is clear and that the victim is not harmed further by tight clothing.
