Q

effects of Nerve agents

A

attacks basic life functions
= body only contracts
AChesterese is imnhibited so buildup of ACh
= uncontrollable release death from cardiac/respiratory arrest

Q

aka blister agents

A

vesicants

18
Q

severe blister agents

A

eyelid edema
corneal damage
labored breathing
eye pain

19
Q

death for blood agents

A

minutes

20
Q

protective gear for blood agents

A

just a mask b/c it is only a respiratory hazard
BUT
will damage3/degrade equipmement so correct filter is key

21
Q

examples of blood CBRNE

A

cyanide

22
Q

affect of cyanide

A

prevents cellular respiration and transport of O2
causing
respiratory arrest and cessation fo heart activity

23
Q

4 types of incapacitating agents

A

delirants
stimulants
psodellics..
- interfere w/higher functions of the brain like memory, perception, planing, judgment, motivation, attention, motivation

24
Q

agent used in our gas chamber

A

CS

25
Q

pepper spray

A

OC
- irritant/lacrimtor, redness of tissue

26
Q

application fo respiratory irritants

A

designed as mask breakers and forces troop to remove their mask. throw up so remove mask and expose to worse.
blow out, don’t take off mask

27
Q

Chlorine gas

A

choking agent and TIC
- spasms of larnx, burnes eys/nose/thraot

28
Q

what is our equipment meant to do

A

equipment is meant for use to leave safely not sustain combat
- put on and get out

29
Q

33
Q

examples of bacterial bio agents

A

anthrax
tularemia
brucellosis

34
Q

virus

A

parasites that live in cell hosts and replicate inside the cells of hosts

35
Q

rickettsia

A

intracellular parasite transmitted by vectors
- requires living tissue for reproduction
“zombie deer”

36
Q

zombie deer

A

rickettsia

37
Q

consider bio attack

A

odd displacement of disease,
off-season,
dissemination intended to reach specific

38
Q

atmospheric conditions of bio agents

A

eboli can’t survive in the north

39
Q

smallpox reservoirs

A

no natural reservoir other than humans

40
Q

treat smallpox if exposed

A

vaccine 3-5 days post exposure
only 12mil doses left. 1 out of every 23
