A few days ago, there was a case of death caused by blind rescue involving limited space in Chongqing, which is really regrettable!
Case review
On December 26, six villagers in Shizhai Community, Changsha Town, Kaizhou District, Chongqing City, fainted from suspected gas poisoning and were sent to the hospital, and three of them died after rescue efforts failed.
The site of the incident is a wasteland, and a large number of citrus fruits have been piled up in a pit, producing toxic gases. The people who rented this land wanted to fill the pit, so they found someone to deal with it, but the workers were poisoned and fell into the pit after going down the pit, and some villagers also fell into the pit to rescue them.
There are many safety risks in blind rescue in limited space!
What should I do in the event of a confined space accident?
After an accident occurs in a confined space operation, the relevant personnel on the site shall immediately report to the person in charge of the enterprise, and blind rescue is prohibited to prevent the consequences of the accident from expanding.
After receiving the accident report, the relevant responsible personnel of the enterprise should immediately start the emergency plan, and organize emergency rescue personnel to carry out rescue in accordance with the plan response procedures.
In the case that their own rescue technology, equipment, and team cannot be rescued, they should contact the fire rescue team and other professional rescue units in time to carry out rescue, and provide various data in a limited space.
When emergency rescue personnel carry out rescue, they shall do a good job of self-protection and wear necessary emergency rescue equipment.
It is necessary to report the accident report level by level in accordance with the accident reporting procedures, so that the relevant departments can understand and grasp the situation in a timely manner, analyze the causes and lessons of the accident, guide the rectification of problems, and effectively prevent similar accidents.
Everyone must remember that scientific rescue and professional rescue are the key to avoid the expansion of accidents!
To protect the safety of life, each of us must take the initiative to learn Xi~
