Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite significant advances in medical technology (such as recognition of physiological derangements, use of topical bactericidal agents, and improved surgical techniques), the care of the thermally burned patient remains a constant challenge to the medical profession. Review of the mortality and morbidity from burn centers across the United States indicates that mortality is usually associated with failures of resuscitation, a significant inhalation injury accompanied by pulmonary insufficiency, or one of the different manifestations of sepsis in the burn patient. Systemic sepsis in the burn patient that is not due to nosocomial infections or pulmonary injury is usually associated with a colonized or infected burn wound. Burn wound sepsis in some degree is present in most burn wounds beyond the 5th day regardless of topical therapy. However, burn wound sepsis manifests itself only if the bacterial count exceeds 100,000 organisms per gram of tissue.
Download or read book Disaster Planning written by J. W. Richardson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaster Planning covers the proceedings of a symposium held at the Royal Naval Hospital Haslar, Gosport, Hants in October 10 and 11, 1974. The book focuses on deliberate actions to be carried out in the occurrence of a disaster. The selection first underscores planning on maritime, railway, and road traffic accidents. Discussions focus on control of an incident, multiple accident procedures, medical aspects of road traffic accidents, role of railway medical officers, railway staff action at an accident, local major disaster plans, and survivors and rescue. The manuscript then takes a look at nuclear accidents, civil disturbances, and major fires. Topics include types of major fires, management of casualties, public relations, decontamination, casualty handling, and public health aspects. The publication ponders on control at a scene of disaster, categorization of casualties, road transport and communications, reception and triage of casualties, and supplies. Concerns include drugs, blood, stretchers and blankets, action by officer in charge of division, and recovery stage of incident. The selection is a dependable source material for researchers interested in disaster preparedness.

Download or read book Military Radiobiology written by James Conklin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military Radiobiology provides an understanding of the sources and consequences of radiation exposure. Military personnel must develop a working knowledge of postexposure effects in order to determine points of intervention. The medical problems confronting military radiobiology include target damage, which causes decrements in normal performance, physiological injury, and impairments of the immunological-hematological system that lead to life-threatening infectious complications. The book begins by describing the properties of nuclear weapons, including the mechanisms by which nuclear energy is stored within the nucleus, its release, and its conversion to those forces associated with nuclear weapons. This is followed by discussions of the sources, patterns, radiological effects, and management of nuclear fallout; the biological effects of exposure to ionizing radiation released by nuclear weapons; and effects of radiation on the immune system, gastrointestinal physiology, and cardiovascular function. Subsequent chapters cover the diagnosis, triage, and treatment of radiation-associated injuries; internal contamination with radionuclides; radioprotective drugs; psychological reactions to nuclear confrontation; and the response to a nuclear weapon accident.
