Peculiarities of providing self-, mutual- and first aid in case of mass lesions. Basics of safe life

Fundamentals of Safe Life Activities (OBZhD)

As a form of medical care first aid aims to prevent further impact on the affected damaging factor, prevent the development of severe complications and thereby save the life of the affected. It is effective when it appears immediately, or as soon as possible after the defeat.

According to the WHO, every 20 out of 100 people killed in an accident in peacetime could have been saved if medical assistance had been provided to them at the scene. Of those who died in the tornado zone in the city of Ivanovo (1984), 16% could have survived if they had received first aid in a timely manner and with high quality for bleeding, bone fractures and asphyxia. With the increase in the period of first aid, the frequency of complications in the affected also increases rapidly.

First medical aid (PMP) is a set of simple medical measures performed at the site of injury, mainly in the order of self-help and mutual assistance, as well as by participants in rescue operations, using standard and improvised means in order to eliminate the continuing impact of the damaging factor, save the lives of the victims, reducing and preventing the development of severe complications.

The optimal time is up to 30 minutes after the injury. First aid for the affected is provided syndromic, i.e., based on the nature, severity and localization of injuries.

The organization of emergency medical care for the injured is closely related to the phases of the development of processes in the disaster area.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Bamboo is the best plant for air purification 03.10.2023

As part of the Clean Air Program, US scientists, collaborating with NASA, conducted research into methods for cleaning the air inside space stations and identified the best plant for absorbing toxins. It turned out that out of 19 indoor plants, bamboo is the leader in all respects, helping not only to purify the air, but also neutralize the largest amount of toxic substances, which has a beneficial effect on human health.

Experts recommend installing 2-3 plants for every 30 square meters of space for maximum effect. Air quality is of great importance for human health, and bamboo, as it turns out, can even lift your spirits.

Researchers note that in most cases, indoor air is polluted by 90% of dust and chemicals emitted by common household items and products. This is especially dangerous for children, asthmatics and allergy sufferers.

Houseplants play a key role in improving air quality: approximately 10% of the air we breathe is moistened by potted plants. They not only purify the air, but also help improve the general condition of the body, reduce stress, fatigue and even fight insomnia, and also have a positive effect on reproductive health.
