Across
- 2. lung, Deadly primary blast injury from over-pressurization
- 4. Confusion- hallucinations- dry skin- dilated pupils- Lasts 30 minutes to 4 days
- 5. National Incident Management System
- 6. approach, Preparing for ANY disaster type with flexible scalable resources
- 10. explosives,TNT Nitroglycerin C-4; Produces supersonic shockwave.
- 12. Intentional release of natural pathogens to cause illness or death
- 14. may occur from individuals being thrown by the blast wind
- 15. Patient has no symptoms
- 16. Creates hydrochloric acid in lungs- Destroys lung tissue- Smells like freshly cut hay- Causes Pulmonary edema and acute- respiratory distress
Down
- 1. Chemical- Biological- Radiological/Nuclear- Explosive weapons
- 3. flying debris and bomb fragments; any body part may be affected
- 7. explosives, Pipe bombs- Gunpowder; subsonic blast effects
- 8. Interferes with cells’ ability to use oxygen (rapid asphyxia)- Can kill within 5-8 minutes with severe exposure
- 9. Runny nose- pinpoint pupils- drooling- sweating- Muscle twitching- seizures- coma- Respiratory failure within minutes
- 11. the impact of the over-pressurization wave on body surfaces
- 12. causes painful blisters resembling second-degree burns - Damages skin- eyes- and respiratory tract-effects may take hours or a full day to appear
- 13. care for nerve agents
