   * **Damage at 0 Hit Points**: If you take any damage while you have 0 hit points, you suffer a death check failure. If the damage is from a critical hit, you suffer two failures instead. If the damage equals or exceeds your hit point maximum, you suffer instant death.

+  * **Stabilizing a Creature**: The best way to save a creature with 0 hit points is to heal it. If healing is unavailable, the creature can at least be stabilized so that it isn't killed by a failed death check. You can use your action to administer first aid to an unconscious creature and attempt to stabilize it, which requires a successful Medicine check. Once a creature is stable it doesn't have to make additional death checks, even though it has 0 hit points, but it does remain unconscious. The creature stops being stable, and must start making death checks again, if it takes any damage. A stable creature that isn't healed regains 1 hit point after 1d4 hours and becomes conscious once again.
