The objective was to evaluate the time to decontaminate an area of skin exposed to an oil-based agent using a water-only decontamination protocol.
A fluorescent mock chemical/biological agent was created. Each of 20 subjects had his/her forearm sprayed with the agent. Each subject placed his/her arm under a decontamination shower, which provided water at a pressure of 60-70 psi and 35 degrees C. After 30 sec a black light was used by three evaluators to determine whether the agent was removed. The process of 30 sec decontamination and re-evaluation was repeated for a total of 5 min. The primary endpoint was proportion decontaminated over time.
After 90 sec, 100% of subjects were decontaminated.
Whereas the data suggest the possibility of rapid water-only decontamination, the applicability of this data in current form is doubtful, but provides a model as a basis for future study.
目的是评估使用仅用水的去污方案对暴露于油基制剂的皮肤区域进行去污所需的时间。
创建了一种荧光模拟化学/生物制剂。20名受试者的每人均在其前臂喷洒该制剂。每名受试者将其手臂置于去污淋浴喷头下，该喷头提供压力为60 - 70磅力/平方英寸且温度为35摄氏度的水。30秒后，三名评估人员使用黑光来确定制剂是否已被去除。30秒去污和重新评估的过程重复进行，总共持续5分钟。主要终点是随时间推移已去污的比例。
90秒后，100%的受试者已被去污。
尽管数据表明仅用水快速去污是有可能的，但以当前形式呈现的数据的适用性存疑，但可为未来研究提供一个模型基础。
