I would call the ambulance immediately and begin the CPR. Check the pupils for light reflex. Paleness due to the loss of peripheral circulation can be seen in death. Other opthalmic reflexes may be checked as well.

The group "Physical Signs in Medicine" is started under the category of "Class Room" for the benefit of UG / PG students.
It will be like a virtual clinic for UG /PG students. Here I as a group leader and class teacher will post information about various physical signs.
All those who want to take advantage of clinical knowledge must join the group and they will be enrolled as students of this virtual clinic.
I will take one sign at a time and post all relevent infromation along with photos / illustrations about it in as many posts as required till all the facts about that sign are completely discussed.
Then I will take another sign and start all over again.
Since the nail examination is very much important in medicine, first I will start with the physical signs that can be seen during nail examination.
Only enrolled students can post their doubts/difficulties here.
Scenarios are better compared to theories that we recall and jot down here.they extract a good deal of reasoning and of course everybody of us enjoys answering one.So post questions and answers,experienced(heard) and synthesized,possible and impossible, torment your head and others' too.Doesn't matter which subject it concerns,neonatology to thanatology, everything will do.
