Electrical and lightning injuries.
The pathophysiology, types, and treatment of electrical and lightning injuries are discussed in detail. Cases of electrical injury almost always eventually involve litigation. Therefore, careful charting of history and physical findings may save the physician court time later. Care of lightning injuries is very different from that of high voltage injuries.
متن کاملDirect Effects of Lightning on Aircraft Structure: Analysis of the Thermal, Electrical and Mechanical Constraints
E-mail: [email protected] T his paper deals with the direct effects of lightning strike on aircraft structures. In a first part, the phenomenology of lightning arc attachment on aircraft is introduced. Some specific features of lightning arcs observed in flight or created in the laboratory are presented. Some recent developments and results from numerical simulations are shown. The sha...
متن کاملElectrical Injuries and Lightning Strikes
Electrical burn injuries account for about 5% of burns unit admissions. Electricians and linesmen are at highest risk but those working with electrical tools also form a significant proportion of this patient group. [2] Electrical injuries in children are unusual and are mainly due to misguided exploration outside the home. [3] For every death, there are two serious injuries and 36 reported ele...

adolescents who engage in risky behavior. The third group comprises adults who work with electricity. Electrical burns account for between 3% and 7% of admissions to burn centers in the United States each year, many of which are occupational injuries. The annual occupational death rate from electrocution is 1 per 100,000; this type of death occurs more frequently in utility workers, miners, and...
متن کاملOn the NOx production by laboratory electrical discharges and lightning
Different approaches are used in estimating the global production of NOx by lightning flashes, including field measurements carried out during thunderstorm conditions, theoretical studies combining the physics and chemistry of the electrical discharges, and measurements of NOx yield in laboratory sparks with subsequent extrapolation to lightning. In the latter procedure, laboratory data are ext...
