✔✔A 3rd degree burn: - ✔✔Affects all the layers of the skin
✔✔The different type of heat burns that can occur are: - ✔✔-Thermal
-Electrical
-Chemical
✔✔Cold burns can be treated by: - ✔✔Slowly re-warming the skin
✔✔Burns are classified by: - ✔✔The depth of skin damage
✔✔A radiation burn can be caused by: - ✔✔Ultraviolet rays
✔✔For a casualty with a fracture, the immediate measure after treating wounds should
be to: - ✔✔Immobilize the fracture
✔✔A triangular bandage is used for: - ✔✔A sling
✔✔Bandages help: - ✔✔- Stop bleeding
- Keep dressing in place
- Provide support
- Prevent movement
✔✔Conduction heat transfer can transfer heat through: - ✔✔Solids
✔✔Convection heat transfer can spread through thermal energy using: - ✔✔Water and
air currents
✔✔Radiation heat transfers through - ✔✔Electromagnetic waves
✔✔The fire triangle (what is needed to make a fire) is made up of: - ✔✔- Oxygen
- Heat
- Fuel
✔✔Combustion can be- - ✔✔Flaming or non-flaming
✔✔To stop combustion- - ✔✔remove one of the elements of the fire triangle
✔✔A fire tetrahedron has 4 factors to have a fire: - ✔✔- Oxygen
- Heat
- Fuel
- Chemical reaction
, ✔✔To reduce, surprese, or control a fire in a fire tetrahedron you must- - ✔✔Remove
any of the 4
✔✔The 3 fire fuels are: - ✔✔- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
✔✔For a fire fuel, a solid: - ✔✔Produces vapors when heated, ignite at ignition
temperature
✔✔For a fire fuel, a liquid: - ✔✔Is the release of molecules, ignite at flash point,
volatility, combustable point, and self ignition
✔✔For a fire fuel, a gas: - ✔✔A fuel and air mixture
✔✔Inflammable combustion: - ✔✔Ignites with a match
✔✔Non-flammable combustion: - ✔✔Needs a large supply of heat before it ignites & will
extinguish itself if the external heat sources removed
✔✔The stages of a fire: - ✔✔- Early phase
- Growth
- Smoldering
- Danger of a back draft
✔✔The early phase of a fire- - ✔✔May produce some smoke but no detect of flame
✔✔The growth stage of a fire: - ✔✔As oxygen goes into the flame, the gases carry heat
✔✔The smoldering stage of a fire: - ✔✔When there's not enough oxygen to react with
the fuel
✔✔The stage of dangers of a back draft: - ✔✔A fire explosion when air is rapidly
introduced to an oxygen deficient space
✔✔Fire class (ABCDK): - ✔✔- A: ordinary combustable fire
- B: flammable liquids
- C: electrical
- D: metal
- K: cooking
✔✔An example of fire class A and the extinguishing agent: - ✔✔Wood, plastic, paper/
water
