Network construction of first aid for electrical injury in the east China area of China Power.
Electrical injury is an area of burn medicine that requires specialized treatment. Injury rates have reached 6.56% in 1990, compared to only 1% prior to 1980. In recent years, the morbidity has steadily increased due to the rapid development of the electrical power industry and the popularization of electrical installations. Electrical accidents cause severe damage to muscle and tissue, which makes treatment of these accident patients quite challenging. Therefore, it is very important to promote the widespread use of a first aid network within the electrical power system while strengthening safety measures within the industry to reduce morbidity and mortality among the electrically injured. To date, similar networks have been established in East China, Central China, North China, and Shandong within the six major electrical power industries. We hope to minimize the injury of workers through appropriate supervision, improved safety measures, and improved safeguarding of equipment.
