Nuclear Detonation Medical Kit Overview

This short video will teach you how to use Nuclear Detonation Medical Kits at an Intermediate

Evacuation Center, or IEC, following a nuclear detonation. In an emergency

like this, your leadership will provide updates or changes as needed. This video will

help you understand the basics and your role. A nuclear blast can injure people

in three major ways. First, from heat, which can cause burns.

Second, from radiation exposure. And third, from the blast wave, which can knock

people down or throw debris. People might experience one or more of these injuries at the

same time, which can make it harder to determine what care they need first.
