Inhaltsangabe
This publication from the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Medical Preparedness for a Terrorist Nuclear Event is a result of a workshop held in 2008 prompted by the Department of Homeland Security to better understand the state of preparedness for an improvised nuclear device detonation in the six Urban Area Security Initiatives designated as "Tier 1." The workshop brought together specialists in emergency medical response and treatment, medical and public health preparedness, health sciences research, and nuclear medicine to review and summarize overall emergency response activities and health care capacity, identify gaps, review and summarize available treatments for radiation illnesses, and appraise the expected benefit of medical countermeasures. Other topics addressed include risk communication, public reactions, and psychological consequences; federal and state medical resources; and current preparedness to prevent and treat delayed casualties. There is no index. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Assessing Medical Preparedness to Respond to a Terrorist Nuclear Event
Anbieter: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. A nuclear attack on a large U.S. city by terrorists--even with a low-yield improvised nuclear device (IND) of 10 kilotons or less--would cause a large number of deaths and severe injuries. The large number of injured from the detonation and radioactive fallout that would follow would be overwhelming for local emergency response and health care systems to rescue and treat, even assuming that these systems and their personnel were not themselves incapacitated by the event. The United States has been struggling for some time to address and plan for the threat of nuclear terrorism and other weapons of mass destruction that terrorists might obtain and use. The Department of Homeland Security recently contracted with the Institute of Medicine to hold a workshop, summarized in this volume, to assess medical preparedness for a nuclear detonation of up to 10 kilotons. This book provides a candid and sobering look at our current state of preparedness for an IND, and identifies several key areas in which we might begin to focus our national efforts in a way that will improve the overall level of preparedness.
