ANSWERS) |ALREADY GRADED A+||BRAND NEW!!
Diarrheal disease
Contracted from contaminated water and food, and it has a
catastrophic impact on the fighting force
Examples:
Not one of Rommel's highly successful generals was available to
help him when he needed them most for his desert campaign in
North Africa at El Alamein.
The U.S. commander of the 1980 exercise Operation Bright Star
rewarded his troops for a job well done with a night in town
prior to redeployment. 30% of his troops awoke the next day
infected with Shigellosis. All were vomiting and had severe
diarrhea on the flight back to the States.
, Three Minor Medical Threats
Toxic Industrial Materials
(TIM) Noise
Pests other than arthropods
Reasons personnel have increased vulnerability to Disease and Non-battle
Injury (DNBI): (4)
1. The harshness of the environment and the tactical situation
2. The disruption of the body's natural defenses
3. Breakdowns in basic sanitation
4. Consumption of unauthorized rations including locally procured
and scavenged food
,Three principles of Preventive Medicine Measures (PMM)
1. The individual service member is responsible for putting individual
PMM into practice.
2. The commander is responsible for implementing and enforcing PMM.
3. The Field Sanitation Team (FST) is responsible for advising
the commander and training the unit's personnel.
Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) Index
Single number derived mathematically from three distinct
temperature measurements:
(a) Wet Bulb Temperature (WB)
(b) Dry Bulb Temperature (DB)
(c) Black Globe Temperature (BG)
Most effective way of assessing the effect of heat stress on the human
body
, Cold injury
Tissue damage produced by exposure to cold
Non-freezing wet cold injury
Associated with prolonged exposure to cold water, dampness, or
high humidity
Freezing dry cold injury
Associated with extended exposure to sub-freezing temperatures,
usually
14 degrees F and below
Environmental factors contributing to heat stress include:
High ambient air temperature
Air temperature is measured with a shaded Dry Bulb thermometer
Environmental factors contributing to heat stress include:
Low wind velocity
Measured with an anemometer
