CBRNE Flashcards
TLO
terminal learnimng objective = main objective of learning
ELO
enabled learning objective = subordinate learning objective. = subskills
problem of chemical weapon delivery
chem hazards can be deployed with other weapons
vapors can permeate small cracks in vehicles, ships, aircraft, buildings
ways chem weapons are dispersed
rockets
spray devices
industrial accidents
mines
aircraft bombs
traits/properties of chemical weapons
physical state
odor
viscosity
volatility
stability in storage
reaction
duration effectiveness
persistency - lasting hrs/days
method of dissemination, weather, terrain controls
letting rain wash away chemical weaopns
weathering
physical properties fo chemical eapons
vapor
density/pressure
volatility
boiling/freezing point
ROE of a chemical weapon
route of exposure
why is knowing if a chemical weapon is stable or unstable important
are they stable/unstable with water. know b/c we often use water to decontaminate
GA
Tabun
GB
Sarin
GD
Soman
examples of nerve agents
tabun
sarin
soman
VX
effects of Nerve agents
attacks basic life functions
= body only contracts
AChesterese is imnhibited so buildup of ACh
= uncontrollable release death from cardiac/respiratory arrest
RSDL
reactive skin decontamination lotion
aka blister agents
vesicants
severe blister agents
eyelid edema
corneal damage
labored breathing
eye pain
death for blood agents
minutes
protective gear for blood agents
just a mask b/c it is only a respiratory hazard
BUT
will damage3/degrade equipmement so correct filter is key
examples of blood CBRNE
cyanide
affect of cyanide
prevents cellular respiration and transport of O2
causing
respiratory arrest and cessation fo heart activity
4 types of incapacitating agents
delirants
stimulants
psodellics..
- interfere w/higher functions of the brain like memory, perception, planing, judgment, motivation, attention, motivation
agent used in our gas chamber
