VOLUME 5: MEDICAL FIRST AID
Information from five fields of emergency response first aid information generated from an expert system named First Response fills this volume. The expert system was developed at Radian Corporation and refined over a period of seven years by a team of occupational physicians, industrial hygienists, safety professionals, toxicologists, and chemists. It takes into account chemical, physical, and toxicological properties of compounds and recommends emergency first aid for four potential routes of exposure: skin contact, inhalation, eye contact, and ingestion.
