Shiel, Jr., MD, FACP, FACR What are the categories of burns? What is the significance of the total body area affected? How important is the location of a burn? ... What about chemical burns? What are the categories of burns? The treatment of burns depends on the depth, area and location of the burn. Burn depth is generally categorized as first, second or third degree. A first degree burn is superficial and has similar characteristics to a typical sun burn. The skin is red in color and sensation is intact. In fact, it is usually somewhat painful. Second degree burns look similar to the first degree burns; however, the damage is now severe enough to cause blistering of the skin and the pain is usually somewhat more intense. In third degree burns the damage has progressed to the point of skin death. The skin is white and without sensation. Regardless of the type of burn, the result is fluid accumulation and inflammation in and around the wound. Moreover, it should be noted that the skin is the body's first defense against infection by microorganisms. Damage to the skin can predispose the burn victim to both infection at the site of the wound as well as internally.

FIRST AID KITS You may hope that an emergency never occurs, but if it does you need to be prepared. Part of being prepared is keeping an appropriately stocked and maintained first aid kit. Possession of an adequate first aid kit will equip you to provide emergency assistance if required. First aid kits can contain different contents, depending on your specific requirements and situation. The best first aid kits are ones that take in to account the specific uses that the kit may be used for. If you are in a remote area the contents of the kit will vary from the kit that you keep at home in the city. A first aid kit should be kept at home, in your car and at your workplace. Recommended Contents of a Personal First Aid Kit First aid kits should be stored in a cool, clean and dry location that is childproof. A regular check of contents is essential to ensure that the contents are present, in date, and in good condition. Make sure that all your family members and staff know where the first aid kit is located so that it can be quickly retrieved in an emergency. Under state and territory legislation, first aid kits must be kept in any workplace. The contents of these first aid kits vary in each state or territory.

var MenuLinkedBy='AllWebMenus [2]', awmBN='530'; awmAltUrl=''; Home Medical Reference Outdoor Health / Safety General First-Aid Principles In all first-aid situations, the rescuer must remain calm. If you panic, you will lose control of the victim, as well as of yourself. To establish authority, speak and act calmly and purposefully. Allow the victim to discuss the incident, his situation, and his fears. If you can involve the victim in his rescue and treatment, it is often good for his morale. Save criticism for after the event, and try not to be judgmental. Avoid laying any blame on people; they may get hurt emotionally or become argumentative as a result. Do not endanger additional inexperienced rescuers. If you cannot get to the victim easily, send for help. Approach all victims safely; don't allow the sense of urgency to transform a sensible rescue into a series of risky, or even foolhardy, maneuvers. If it appears that the victim is too ill to be moved, set up camp immediately. In all cases, protect the victim from above and below from the elements. If you have paper and a writing instrument, record your observations. If you send someone for help, have him carry a piece of paper that states the victim's location, the nature of the emergency, the number of people needing help, the condition of the victim(s), what is being done to treat the victim(s), and any specific environmental conditions or physical obstacles. Accident report forms are available from organizations such as The Mountaineers.

Prepared by Charles Schwab , extension safety specialist; Carolyn Sheridan, registered nurse, Spencer Municipal Hospital; and Laura Miller , extension communications. Iowa State University Extension Farming is a dangerous occupation, not just in the number of deaths but also the high rate of injuries that occur on the job. Many injuries are the result of modern farm equipment that is more powerful and specialized to handle specific tasks. To deal with these dangers, farm workers must be prepared to handle medical emergencies. According to the Iowa Department of Public Health, 2,433 farm-related injuries received medical attention in 1994. Although farm-related injuries vary according to season and type of operation, the three most common causes are livestock, machinery, and slips or falls. More than half of all farm injuries (54 percent) in Iowa are caused by these hazards. How you respond to farm-related injuries is critical. Certain conditions exist on a farm that can turn a minor injury into a life-threatening situation before professional medical treatment is available. Agricultural accidents often occur in remote locations and go undetected for long periods of time. Being prepared for medical emergencies and knowing the basics of first response can help minimize the extent of injuries.

MSDSs First Aid Kit Policy and Guidelines for Laboratories UNIVERSITY SAFETY POLICY OSHA medical service regulations mandate that the "employer shall ensure the ready availability" of medical personnel and first aid supplies for matters of employee health. Medical care at the University is available through the University Health Service, the workers' compensation providers for each respective campus, and local hospitals (see Chemical and Biological Safety in Laboratories, Medical Emergency Procedures). University safety policy, as established by the Chemical and Biological Safety Committee (CBSC), also manages compliance with this law by requiring principal investigators or lab supervisors to provide a first aid kit for each lab group. First aid kits shall be readily accessible to laboratory staff at all times while they are at work. Lab workers shall be trained to know the location of the kit. Hazard-specific first aid supplies shall be made available, as appropriate, when research work involves particular chemicals such as cyanides or hydrofluoric acid. Exposures to these severely toxic agents warrant immediate application of special remedies. GUIDELINES FOR PROVIDING ADEQUATE SUPPLIES General Overview of First Aid Kit Content OSHA demands that a "consulting physician" approve first aid kits. In essence, this means that the contents of basic kits purchased from safety and laboratory supply companies are expected to have been reviewed for appropriateness and completeness by a physician. Any kit ordered through a commercial distributor is likely to meet this stipulation since the manufacturer will develop the standardized product based on medical counsel (for liability reasons). If in doubt at the time of purchase, request that the distributor enclose formal documentation of the consulting physician's endorsement.
