4 Massachusetts General Hospital archives Massachusetts General Hospital archives What was it like in 1942? Drs. Francis Daniels Moore & Oliver Cope treated dozens at Mass General using dressings process, smearing gauze with Vaseline. Innovation of necessity. City hospitals were well stocked [due to WWII] with excess supplies of bandages, oxygen tents, plasma & saline solution. Most patients were given morphine for pain upon arrival, before doctors had time to assess injuries. An enterprising nurse devised a system for putting a red M on the victim s forehead, indicating that they d received pain medication. Mass General s newly constructed Blood Bank one of the first in the region was tested. City-wide calls went out for blood / plasma donors. Survivors of the Coconut Grove were some of the first patients treated with the new drug, Penicillin. 4 of 13

8 Austin TX, 2/18/2010 Angry software engineer, Joseph Stack, flies his Piper Cherokee into the IRS building ONLY two people died, But... Total fuel load (unmodified) Piper Cherokee is 84 gals What if? Houston Chronicle Houston Chronicle 8 of 13
9 Houston Chronicle Planes, Trains & Automobiles Highly Combustible Materials Are Out There Air, rails, roadways... Fuel is available Scenarios for large-scale fires with dozens to hundreds injured are limitless New scenarios for all of us to consider are potentials for burn injuries associated with gas-drilling industry! How many can your hospital handle? How many can the closest Burn Center handle? 9 of 13
10 Marcellus-shale.us Sierra Club Testimony to NY State EPA Concerning Accidents: Even the most careful drilling operation can result in accidents causing chemical spills or injuries. A truck overturns; a worker forgets to close a spigot. Gas and oil companies, including Meridian, Gastar and Chesapeake list accidents, including fires, explosions and pipe failures, as inherent risks of drilling. The Durango Herald recently reported that a nurse fell gravely ill with heart, lung and liver failure, plus kidney damage and blurred vision. It was determined that she had breathed fumes from a hydraulic drilling worker s chemical laden clothing after treating him in the ER. Do we have any plan in place to deal with medical emergencies? Do rural areas have sufficient medical personnel, including EMTs, trained in responding to chemical accidents? Do we have a plan in place for training our fire departments in extinguishing chemical fires? Will fire departments receive additional funding to deal with these issues? Are burn carts needed? Are burn carts available? According to HAP 65 Beds PICU 10 of 13
