21. Out hospital disaster
Management
Disaster happened at the out side of
hospital….like flood, war, droughts, bio –
terrorism
Now,
The management of disaster have
2 phases:
✓ 4 phase
✓ 6 phase
26. STEPS
Pre – preparedness :
It’s a major and foremost step taken in
disaster management phase…This intervention
helps to prevent or Minimize the losses and
damages of the disaster
IT INCLUDES :
✓ Evaluation of risk
✓ Ensure all resources - ready
and easy to mobilized
✓coordinate information with
media
27. ✓ Prepare healthcare workers – In
and out hospital
✓ prepare rescue team members
✓ shift the people’s who all are in
major risk zone
✓ Public education
✓ Training and mock drills
✓ Disaster simulation exercises.
28. Impact stage :
Immediate reaction to disaster as
the disaster is anticipated or soon after it
begins in order to assess the needs reduce
the suffering, limit the spread and
consequences of the disaster, open up the
way to rehabilitation…..
By mass evacuation, search and
rescue, Emergency medical services,
securing food and water..
29. Response and Rescue :
Before starting a rescue and
response operation ENSURE THE
SAFETY
TRIAD – RESCUE PHASE:
Scene size up
TriageTransport
30. ✓ First and foremost step
taken in disaster management
✓ Set the border around
disaster happened area and restrict the
unnecessary people’s entry
✓ Only health care
professionals, Rescue team members,
Ambulance….
Scene size up:
31. Triage :
TRIAGE word derived from,
TRIER ( French word
) Meaning – To short.
Triage defined as a shortening Of
peoples based on their severity and also
our resources..
32. ✓In disaster area
mass casualty is there…so we
can’t do person by person
assessment…
✓ so here we use
simple ‘SALT’ triage
system….
33. SALT TRIAGE :
S – shortening or global shortening
A – assessment or initial assessment
L – life threatening intervention
T – Transport to definite care
34. Step – 1 -> Shortening:
Categories the people by following
steps :
Able to walk – 3rd priority
Purposeful Movement – 2nd priority
Life threatening – 1st priority
35. Step 2 -> Assessment :
Here for individual assessment, we
use “RPM” formula.
R – Respiration
P - pulse or perfusion
M – Mental status
36.
37. Step 3 -> life threatening
intervention:
life threatening intervention
includes,
CPR( Cardio pulmonary
resuscitation)
Bleeding control
Needle thoracocentesis ( aseptic
manner)
38. Step 4 -> TRANSPORT :
Transport the patient from the
out hospital or disaster area to to definite
care…
It includes,
Air ambulance transport
Road way ambulance.
41. In hospital disaster :
It occurs when the increased
number of peoples ( mass casualty)
admitted in hospital / more than
resources ( no. Of beds, equipments,
etc..)
causes :
1. Improper identification, triage
2. Lack of supplies
3. Poor communication network
42. Classes :
• Class A – No disturbance in routine
work
• Class B – Minor disturbance, need
some modifications
• Class C – Major disturbance of routine
work
43. MANAGEMENT
Management on,
1. Number of beds :
Here we increase the
capacity by car barking, warrant to wards
and ICUs….; Discharge the admitted
patient who don’t need emergent care in
hospital…
44. IHD – Management :
2. Next , Need of Medicines,
equipments, staffs:
>We can buy medication
and equipments in near by hospital/ near
by district health care facility, stack
hold…
> We can post the
temporary staffs to manage the staff
insufficiency
46. Post impact phase , Mitigation:
Post impact phase is a disaster recovery
phase
In this,
✓ Displace the people’s from their origin
✓ Reconstruction process
✓ Rehabilitation process ( Financial,
physical, psychological)
47. Mitigation :
Mitigation means reduce the risk of
disaster…..or prevention
Mitigation – Pneumonic:
“ PRE – DISASTER “
P – Planning and practice.
