Mass Casualties, Contaminated but Uninjured People, and Worried Well
•A
mass casualty incident resulting from nuclear terrorism is likely to
generate large numbers of frightened people who may not require
decontamination or trauma care. It may also generate people who are
contaminated, but not injured or whose injuries do not require care in
the emergency department. It is important to take measures to prevent
these people from overwhelming the emergency department.
•A
triage site should be established outside the ED. Security personnel
will be needed to directed people to the triage site and prevent them
avoiding the triage site and reached the emergency department.
