Safety of First Responders After 9/11

Safety of First Responders After 9/11

The opening of the Oliver Stone movie World Trade Center on August 8th and the 5th anniversary of 9/11 approaching raises the question: What have we learned about better preparing and protecting our firefighters?

There are ground breaking technologies that can help prevent the injury and death of first responders such as firefighters. The LifeShirt from VivoMetrics monitors a full range of life-signs in real-time and transmits that information to commanders who can make immediate decisions to pull firefighters out of dangerous situations.

Recognizing the long-term effects the environment of a disaster recovery area can have on rescue workers, VivoMetrics has integrated with other systems to detect various hazardous chemicals, gas and radiation. This not only helps first responders on the scene, but it can help determine the best course of action for victims exposed to the elements.
