Blast Pathophysiology

  • Primary Injury – Blast

wave – overpressure. A pushing force = blunt trauma

  • Expanding gases moving

at very high speeds – 1500 mph

  • Rapid increase in

pressure, 100 PSI in a matter of milliseconds

  • Lower velocity = lower

pressure in non-weapons grade (HME)

slide-8
SLIDE 8
  • Blast Pathophysiology
  • Secondary Injuries –

shrapnel and everything pushed by the blast wave

  • Usually found as

penetrating trauma

  • Cutting force
  • Cavitation process into

body tissues – potential spaces fill with blood and debris

  • Blast Pathophysiology
  • Tertiary Injuries
  • Blast wave moving victims

into objects

  • Can be a mixture of blunt

and penetrating trauma

HABC

  • A – Airway
  • Casualty may have dirt and debris in every
  • rifice – rinse out mouth and nose
  • Position of comfort – casualty will work to

protect their own airway – anatomic position usually is not the best

  • Early definitive airway – if you think they need a

tube, then they need a tube

  • Cricothyroidotomy vs Oropharyngeal airway
slide-40
SLIDE 40

Definitive Airway

  • Open the airway as your first option
  • Adjunct Airway Devices
  • OPA, NPA, Bite Block – Rinse out airway
  • Suppraglottic airway - KING LT

  • Surgical Airway
  • Once you have the tube, you are committing

manpower to ventilate

TCCC Additional Considerations

  • Prevention of

hypothermia

  • Heated blankets

  • Disarm your casualty if using

narcotics – frequent monitoring required

  • Naloxone needed if using

narcotics 0.4-2mg IV/IM

Blast Injury

  • Practical Applications
  • IEDs are becoming an effective weapon used in

domestic terrorist and mass casualty events
