The selection of rescue equipment should be determined based on the harmful factors that arise during production, storage, and transportation; I believe that isolated gas protection devices can be used in various environments. As for regulations and standards, I’d like to know those too!

When equipping emergency rescue equipment, it is necessary to first conduct a preliminary hazard analysis of the surrounding environment, identify potential hazards, and then proceed with the procurement of equipment in a targeted manner The standards can be used as a reference and should also be based on these: for fire and explosion prevention, refer to the Building Fire Protection Design Code! When selecting personal protective equipment, such as gas cartridges, make sure to choose ones with the appropriate rating based on the type of gas being used! But it would be better to have posts that are relatively concentrated, so it’s easier for us to refer to them!

A major chemical accident often requires a large number of rescuers and rescue equipment; A good chemical accident emergency response center, or a hospital affiliated with a chemical industry enterprise, or a chemical industry occupational health facility, should also be equipped with the appropriate equipment and apparatus for carrying out emergency response efforts in case of chemical accidents. Generally, first aid at the scene of chemical accidents requires the following four types of materials and equipment: ① First aid supplies and medicines ; ②Protective equipment ; ③Emergency vehicle ; ④Emergency communication tool. I. First-aid equipment and medicines 1. General first-aid equipment: loudspeakers, lighting tools, tents, rain gear, signs indicating safe areas, first-aid stations and wind direction signs, triage signs, stretchers, etc. 2. Conventional and special first-aid equipment: portable operating tables and **supplies, oxygen, portable suction devices, nebulizers, breathing bags or ventilators, mouth-to-mouth resuscitation tubes, cardiac compression pumps, endotracheal tubes, laryngoscopes, various puncture needles, intravenous catheters, gastric tubes, urinary catheters, cricothyrotomy instruments, phlebotomy kits, debridement kits, closed thoracic drainage devices, various syringes, infusion devices, triangular bandages, gauzes, sterile dressings, adhesive tape, tourniquets, anti-shock garments, limb splints, spinal boards, electrocardiographs; defibrillators should be available where possible, as well as cardiac pacemakers, mobile X-ray diagnostic units, equipment for routine tests, and air quality monitoring vehicles. Conventional equipment such as stethoscopes, sphygmomanometers, thermometers, tongue depressors, and mouth openers. 3. First-aid medications include adrenaline, noradrenaline, isoprenaline, lidocaine, propranolol, scopolamine, nicorandil, resuscitrol, digoxin, strychnine, diazepam, pheniramine, phenobarbital, chlorpromazine, pethidine, **, aminophylline, dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, atropine, 654-2, hemostatic agents, antifibrinolytic agents, vasopressin, dopamine, aramin, phentolamine, reserpine, sodium nitroprusside, isooctyl nitrite, nitroglycerin, furosemide, mannitol, defoamers, various major antibiotics, several major antidotes and detoxifiers, glucose injection, water for injection, normal saline, sodium bicarbonate injection, Linger’s lactate solution, plasma substitutes, topical disinfectants, oral drinks for burns, acid-base neutralizing and rinsing solutions for burns, eye drops, eye ointments, and other first-aid medications. II. Protective Equipment: Personnel who enter the scene of a chemical accident to carry out rescue operations must wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gas masks, masks, hats, gloves, protective clothing, and items for cleaning and removing contaminants, in order to avoid exposure to toxic gases, chemical burns, or oxygen deprivation. For the types, usage, and precautions of its protective equipment, please refer to the relevant sections. III. Emergency vehicles: Emergency vehicles are specialized transportation vehicles that can be used in emergency situations to transport patients and provide care for those in critical condition. According to the \"Professional Standards for Ambulances in the People’s Republic of China\" finalized in 1986, emergency ambulances are classified into four categories: ① Command ambulances: used for on-site organization and command during large-scale catastrophic accidents as well as for medical rescue tasks; they are primarily equipped with functions such as communication, command, and sound amplification ; ②Emergency rescue ambulance: Equipped with life-saving equipment such as CPR devices, defibrillators, and ventilators, intended for use with critically ill patients ; ③Specialized ambulances: These can be divided into specialized types such as those for trauma, poisoning, disasters, obstetrics, ophthalmology, and internal/external medical resuscitation; the equipment used varies depending on the specialty ; ④Standard ambulance: It has a stretcher inside and generally no other medical equipment; it is mainly used for transporting ordinary patients. In practical use, depending on the requirements, ambulances are generally divided into two categories: regular ambulances and resuscitation ambulances. The equipment for medical devices and the allocation of medications depend on respective conditions and needs. However, some of the most basic first-aid equipment and medications must be provided in accordance with the following requirements. Only ambulances that meet the following equipment standards can be considered true emergency vehicles. 1. Standard emergency ambulance (1) Stretcher and transportation supplies: including standard stretchers, folding stretchers, mattresses, sheets, blankets, pillows, etc. (2) Hemostatic supplies: include tourniquets, compression bandages, adhesive tape, hemostatic forceps, etc. (3) Artificial respiration equipment: includes ventilators, mouth openers, tongue depressors, and spare oxygen cylinders or oxygen bags. (4) Splints: include full-body splints and local splints. (5) Bandages: including triangular bandages, bandages, first-aid kits, bandage clamps, gauze, etc. (6) Irrigation equipment: includes eye drops bottles, eye wash bowls, irrigators, water receivers, etc. (7) Nursing emergency response supplies: including washbasins, rubber gloves, toilets, waste bins, ice pillows, ice packs, thermometers, sphygmomanometers, oil-paper, absorbent cotton, etc. (8) Surgical instruments: including scissors (a set of three), scalpels, forceps (a set of three), cotton rolls, wheat grain forceps, etc. (9) Disinfection equipment: includes steam disinfectors, boiling disinfectors, spray disinfectors, and finger disinfectors. (10) Container categories: include first-aid kits, medicine cabinets, bottles and dishes, wide-mouth bottles, gauze trays, water kettles, etc. (11) First-aid equipment: includes life belts, waist belts, life-saving devices, safety helmet headlamps, emergency signaling equipment, flashlights, personal gas protection gear, etc. (12) Antiseptics for trauma, general disinfectants, and various first-aid medications. (Omitted) 2. Resuscitation ambulance (1) Equipped with the full set of standard equipment found in a regular ambulance. (2) Critical patient bed monitoring instrument (DC powered). (3) DC defibrillator and demand pacemaker (with a full set of catheter electrodes). (4) Jet ventilators, bag-mask respirators, airway tubes for the mouth and throat, endotracheal tubes, tracheostomy connectors, oxygen sources, etc. (5) Portable suction devices, cardiac compression equipment – heart pumps, backboards, head stabilization devices, etc. (6) Radio communication equipment, vehicle phones, walkie-talkies, and other rescue equipment, etc. IV. Emergency Communication Tools: It is very important to have appropriate emergency communication tools on site. Under current conditions, on-site first aid can be equipped with: ① a radio or vehicle phone ; ②Portable mobile phone ; ③Intercom. Under normal circumstances, when emergency response teams for chemical accidents carry out rescue operations, the team leader must have at least a portable mobile phone or walkie-talkie to maintain communication with the on-site command center or emergency services.

None of them hit the mark. Could we talk about norms and standards? I’m not quite sure; I’m hoping for a more impressive answer

There are countless standard specifications – there are regulations for emergency lights, fire extinguishers, and gas masks, and these regulations continue to be improved. Are you looking for a set of guidelines or a comprehensive specification regarding the provision of all emergency equipment? It seems not yet! Just look for the relevant thing as needed, right?

Brother, back on the fifth floor: medicines, protective gear, ambulances, and communication devices are all available. But after an accident occurs, is it still necessary to carry out rescue and disaster relief efforts? Can the equipment used for such rescue and disaster relief efforts be considered part of the rescue equipment? Among them: leak-sealing tools are the most common, and fire-fighting equipment is also one type; however, the specific guidelines require fire-fighting equipment to be listed separately. I really don’t know how to write this.
