My mother is 76 - she has two in her home and all of her neighbors who
are also in their retirement years also have anywhere between two and four units
in their homes. How much do you love your family? It is a small price to pay to
save lives. This is my goal - just to save lives.
A local group in St.
Louis that has eleven hotels are now in the process of placing these into their
hotel rooms. Even the Delta Queen sees the importance of the safety of its
passengers in a Fire and Smoke environment. They treat these just like the
mini-bar in the room – if you use it or take it, the replacement cost is charged
to your credit card.
Our fire safety hood is endorsed by many fire
departments and actually used in live testing in real fire training facilities.
Recently Aired ( May 24th, 2005 ) with on the local affiliate of NBC News / KSDK
in St. Louis, Missouri and Art Holliday, Executive Producer, who has done an in
depth Special Report on this device and how it can save lives. He even bought
three of these for his own family. A local fire department used this at their
training facility in a live fire reenactment. The fireman stood in the
smoke-filled tower and was able to breathe for 15 minutes. He even gave the
device a two thumbs up with no problems.
We are endorsed by the American
Red Cross, and a portion of the profits are donated to their organization.

Frequency:
In the US: Burns and fires are the third leading cause of accidental death
in all age groups. They comprise the second leading cause of death in the home
for all ages and the leading cause of death in the home for children and young
adults.
In 1998, approximately 381,500 residential fires occurred in the
US, resulting in 3,250 non-firefighter deaths, 17,175 injuries, and nearly $4.4
billion in property loss. These figures do not include the estimated 90% of
fires not reported to fire departments. More than half of all fatal residential
fires started between the hours of 11 pm and 7 am.
Incidence of SI
increases from less than 10% in patients with a mean total body surface area
(TBSA) burn size of 5% to more than 80% in patients with a mean TBSA burn size
of 85% or more. SI is present in one third of patients treated at burn centers.
The magnitude of SI is devastating, as the presence of an inhalation injury has
a greater effect on mortality than either patient age or surface area burned.
Internationally: The US has one of the highest fire fatality rates in
the developed world, accounting for 2.3 deaths per 100,000 population. In fact,
fire death rates in the US and Canada are twice as high as in Western Europe and
Japan.
Background: Smoke inhalation (SI) was described as early as the
first century AD, when Pliny reported the execution of prisoners by exposure to
the smoke of greenwood fires.
Many victims of fire accidents have both
SI and thermal injury. Inhalation injury from smoke and the noxious products of
combustion in fires may account for as many as 85% of fire-related deaths in the
US, many of which are preventable. Even though the excellence of care rendered
at today's burn centers has greatly reduced the mortality from surface burns,
the mortality from pulmonary injury has been increasing. Diagnosis of inhalation
injury is not always straightforward, sensitive screening tests are lacking, and
symptoms may be delayed until 24-36 hours after injury.
Pathophysiology:
The 3 primary mechanisms that lead to injury in SI are thermal damage,
asphyxiation, and pulmonary irritation.
Thermal damage
Thermal
damage usually is limited to the oropharyngeal area. This is due to the poor
conductivity of air and the high amount of dissipation that occurs in the upper
airways. Animal experiments have shown that if air at 142°C is inhaled, then by
the time it reaches the carina it will have cooled to 38°C. Steam, volatile
gases, explosive gases, and the aspiration of hot liquids provide some
exceptions, as moist air has a much greater heat-carrying capacity than dry air.
Asphyxiation
Tissue hypoxia can occur secondary to several
mechanisms. Combustion utilizes oxygen, which in a closed space may be consumed,
significantly decreasing the ambient concentration of oxygen to as low as
10-13%. The decrease in fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) leads to hypoxia,
despite adequate circulation and oxygen-carrying capacity.
Carbon
monoxide (CO) causes tissue hypoxia by decreasing the oxygen-carrying capacity
of the blood. Hemoglobin binds CO with an affinity more than 200 times greater
than the affinity for oxygen. CO also causes a left shift in the oxyhemoglobin
saturation dissociation curve. CO has been shown to bind to the cytochrome
oxidase chain in vitro. Finally, CO decreases myocardial contractility.
Combustion of plastics, polyurethane, wool, silk, nylon, nitriles,
rubber, and paper products can lead to the production of cyanide (CN) gas.
Consider CN toxicity in all SI patients with CNS or cardiovascular findings. CN
is a chemical asphyxiant that interferes with cellular metabolism by binding to
the ferric ion on cytochrome a3, subsequently halting cellular respiration. As a
consequence of the cessation of the electron transport system, anaerobic
metabolism ensues, with corresponding high lactate acidosis and decreased oxygen
consumption.
Methemoglobinemia occurs in fire due to heat denaturation
of hemoglobin, oxides produced in fire, and methemoglobin-forming materials such
as nitrites. Occurrence of methemoglobinemia is a rarer phenomenon than CN and
CO toxicity. The pathophysiologic consequences of methemoglobin formation are a
decrease in the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood and a shift of the
oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve to the left, similar to carboxyhemoglobin
(HbCO).
Pulmonary irritation
Irritants can cause direct tissue
injury, acute bronchospasm, and activation of the body's inflammatory response
system. Activated leukocytes and/or humoral mediators, such as prostanoids and
leukotrienes, produce oxygen radicals and proteolytic enzymes. Supporting the
importance of the inflammatory response to the mechanism of tissue destruction,
some studies have shown that the administration of the cyclooxygenase inhibitor,
ibuprofen, was found to reduce the lung lymph flow in animals with SI. The
direct injury is a consequence of the size of the particle, its solubility in
water, and its acid-base status. Ammonia produces alkaline injury, while sulfur
dioxide and chlorine gas lead to acid injuries. Other chemicals act via
different mechanisms; for instance, acrolein causes free radical formation and
protein denaturation.
The location of injury depends on the solubility
of the substance in water. High-solubility substances such as acrolein, sulfur
dioxide, ammonia, and hydrogen chloride cause injury to the upper airway.
Substances with intermediate solubility, such as chlorine and isocyanates, cause
upper and lower respiratory tract injury. Phosgene and oxides of nitrogen have
low water solubility and cause diffuse parenchymal injury.
