9. MEANS OF MEDICAL PROTECTION. INDIVIDUAL AID KIT

Means of medical protection are designed to prevent or reduce the degree of impact of damaging factors of emergency situations (ES), as well as to provide first aid to victims in emergency situations. To medical protective equipment include radioprotective agents, antidotes, antibacterial drugs, partial sanitization agents. The selection of the necessary drugs, explaining to the population the rules for taking them, are carried out by special units of the medical service.

Radioprotective means - These are drugs that increase the body's resistance to the action of radiation exposure (RW). They are means of preventing damage during external irradiation, when radioactive substances enter the body or when they affect the skin, they are used to weaken the primary reaction of the body to radiation.

Individual first aid kit (AI) is intended to prevent the development of shock, radiation sickness, lesions caused by organophosphorus substances. It comes in an orange plastic flat pack with a drug fixative.

В composition AI-2 includes 7 therapeutic and prophylactic drugs.

1. Pain reliever (in a syringe tube) is intended for subcutaneous or intramuscular injections for soft tissue injuries, skeletal fractures, and extensive burns.

2. Drug used for organophosphorus poisoning. Single dose - 1 tablet to prevent damage to VWF and when the first signs of poisoning appear. If symptoms increase, take 1 additional tablet.

3. Radioprotective agent No. 1 is taken when there is a threat of exposure. Single dose - 6 tablets. Repeated single dose (according to indications) - 6 tablets every 4-5 hours.

4. Radioprotective agent No. 2 is taken after the fallout of radioactive substances. Single dose - 1 tablet daily for 10 days.

5. #1 antibacterial taken to prevent bacterial infection of wounds, burns, as well as bacterial damage. Single dose - 5 tablets; repeat single dose - 5 tablets every 6 hours.

6. Antibacterial agent No. 2 is intended for use in the initial stage of acute radiation sickness (with vomiting, nausea, diarrhea). Single dose on the first day - 7 tablets; on the 2-3rd day, single doses are 4 tablets.

7. Antiemetic taken after radiation, as well as when nausea occurs after head injuries (bruises), concussions. Single dose - 1 tablet.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Single housing digital UV sensor 13.02.2014

Silicon Labs announced the release of the industry's first single package UV sensor. This sensor can monitor sunlight exposure, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation (pulse oximetry), as well as implement proximity response and gesture control functions in mobile and wearable electronic devices.

Sensors Si1132 and Si114x, according to the manufacturer, will find application in physical activity monitors in the form of bracelets and cuffs, smart watches and smartphones. In addition to measuring the UV index, they allow you to evaluate the level of ambient light in the visible range and measure infrared radiation.

The ability to measure the intensity of ultraviolet radiation will allow sensor-equipped devices to warn the user of danger by analyzing the total exposure over time and comparing it with acceptable values.

The Si1132 sensor operates in the UV and visible light range. It is equipped with I2C interface.

The Si1145/46/47 sensors additionally cover the infrared range. Among themselves, they differ in the presence of one, two or three LED drivers with 15 brightness levels, which are used in gesture recognition systems.

Currently, such solutions include an external sensor, an ADC, and a microcontroller. Silicon Labs sensors take up 2 x 2 mm space on the board. They are available in 10-pin QFN packages. Price Si1132 - $1,1, Si114x - from $1,32.
