Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Treatment in a Hot Zone is in my considered opinion a waste of time. Rapid extrication to a clean area with rapid Devon and simultaneous treatment is the preferred method in my opinion. Louis N.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 So tell about the treatment you would propose and have you any actual case experience? We are presently doing the same treatment as you suggest. Thanks for the reply. Sent from my iPhone On Jan 12, 2012, at 7:16 PM, " Louis N.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 My background as a BLS only medical Provider offers ne limited ability to comment on the medical treatment above the BLS level. My background in HAZMAT and WMD planning and response is what leads me to the statement that Hot Zone treatment is futile. Many have toyed with this concept since the days of the Nunn-Luger-Domenichi Act of the middle 1990's and I don't anyone has had any level of success in the arena. Louis N.
