PA BVR Tech
Access - ANS-Creating a pathway for qualified EMS to provide patient care
alternative powered vehicles - ANS-hydrogen, Propane, NG, bio diesel
blue colored cable - ANS-low or medium voltage
body-over-frame construction - ANS-A type of vehicle frame resembling a ladder, which
is made up of two parallel rails joined by a series of cross members. This kind of
construction is typically used for luxury vehicles, sport utility vehicles, and all types of
trucks.
A body is placed over the frame of vehicle
chassis - ANS-framework and working parts of an automobile; framework to which
components are attached
common passenger vehicles - ANS-light or medium duty passenger or commercial
vehicles
Conventional type vehicles - ANS-Use internal combustion engines (Fuel such as gas
or diesel)
crumple zones - ANS-Crumple on impact, increasing the time taking for the car to stop
different types of bits for a pneumatic chisel - ANS-W shaped bit (panel cutter)
C shaped bit (half moon) cutting metals
disassembling - ANS-to take something apart
Disentanglement - ANS-process of freeing a patient from wreckage, to allow for proper
care, removal, and transfer.
displacing - ANS-moving
distorting - ANS-misshaping
, Electric-powered vehicles - ANS-electric motor for propulsion, powered by rechargeable
batteries,
extrication - ANS-Removal of a patient from entrapment or a dangerous situation or
position, such as removal from a wrecked vehicle, industrial incident, or collapsed
building after disentanglement
Finance/Administration Section - ANS-responsible for maintaining records for
personnel, time, and costs of resources/procurement; reports directly to the IC.
Front impact collisions - ANS-Vehicle Strikes and Object Head on
Hazard Analysis - ANS-a systematic process for identifying hazards and recommending
corrective action
MUST determine the possibility and probability of an event happening
heavy vehicles - ANS-heavy duty, off road, construction, or mass transit vehicles
How many impacts does a patient withstand in a vehicle collision? - ANS-3
How many volts does a car battery have? - ANS-12 Volts
Hybrid Vehicle - ANS-A vehicle that uses both an electric motor and internal combustion
engine for propulsion. This type of vehicle gets
better gas mileage and has lower emissions than conventional
vehicles.
Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles - ANS-use hydrogen gas for fuel to power electrical
components and produce water as their only waste product
Incident Action Plan (IAP) - ANS-Written (Formal) or oral (Informal) plans that contain
the general objectives for an incident
Incident response planning - ANS-the process of compiling, documenting, and
dispersing information for preparation of an incident
inner survey - ANS-5' - 15' from the vehicle
(all 4 sides plus the roof and undercarriage)
