Children are especially vulnerable to the effects of chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction (WMD) because of physiologic, pharmacologic, and developmental characteristics. Presentation of signs and symptoms of exposure to biological and chemical agents are similar to those seen in adults. Pediatric considerations for decontamination and treatment of child victims of biological and chemical agents are discussed.
As front-line providers, nurses need to be aware of potential agents, their uses and effects as WMD, and recommended treatments.
Understanding the additional physiologic and situational needs of children, nurses can optimize the survival and outcomes of children when disaster strikes.
由于生理、药理和发育特征，儿童特别容易受到大规模杀伤性化学和生物武器（WMD）的影响。接触生物和化学制剂的体征和症状表现与成人相似。本文讨论了对生物和化学制剂儿童受害者进行去污和治疗时的儿科注意事项。
作为一线医疗人员，护士需要了解潜在的制剂、它们作为大规模杀伤性武器的用途和影响以及推荐的治疗方法。
了解儿童额外的生理和情境需求，护士可以在灾难发生时优化儿童的生存和预后。
