Management of irradiated and contaminated casualty victims.

This article attempts to put into perspective the serious concerns regarding a radiation accident and to provide guidelines for the management of casualties arising from a radiation accident. It is intended primarily for the medical facility that does not have a specific requirement for a radiation accident treatment capability but wishes to be prepared should it be called upon to respond. A review of radiation effects is provided as well as guidelines for the management of irradiated or contaminated casualties. Psychological, public relations, and training concerns are also addressed.

Diagnosis and management of diving diseases range from simple ear squeeze to decompression sickness. There are relative and absolute contradictions to sport diving.
