Abstract

In mass casualty situation occured due to attacks involving chemical weapons either in peacetime or in a battlefield, triage is absolutely required for categorizing the casualties in accordance with medical care priorities. While applying triage system for chemical casualties, in particular available medical resources and medical treatment facilities and also maximally utilization of medical assets should be taken into consideration by experienced triage officers who are most familiar with the natural course of the injury presented and have highly information on medical assets. There are several triage systems applied to chemical casualties but not standardized. An effective and excellent triage application would not only reduce the destroying effects of chemical weapons on people but also increase the casualty survival.

Özet

Kimyasal ajanlar veya silahlar ile meydana gelen ve kitlesel zayiata yol açan olaylarda eldeki tıbbi olanaklara göre yaralıların kategorize edilmesi için triyaj işlemlerinin mutlaka yapılması gerekmektedir. Triyajı uygulayacak triyaj sorumlusu olayın ve ajanın etkilerini en iyi bilebilecek, eldeki tıbbi unsurları takip edebilecek yetenek ve tecrübede olmasına özen gösterilmelidir. Bu kişi, triyaj sistemlerini uygularken, en uygun tıbbi olanakları göz önüne almalı, bunları maksimum düzeyde kullanmaya özen göstermelidir. Kimyasal olaylara yönelik bir kaç triyaj sisteminden söz edilebilir, ancak bunların standardize edilemediği de bir gerçektir. Etkin ve uygun bir şekilde yapılan triyaj işlemi sadece kimyasal silahların yıkıcı etkisini azaltmayacak, aynı zamanda yaralıların yaşam yüzdelerini de artıracaktır.
