Abstract: A chemical protective poncho system for encapsulating a patient is presented. The system has a body extending a length between a top end and a bottom end and having a hood attached near the top end and having a liner attached near the bottom end. The system includes a layer of adsorbent impregnated media capable of filtering chemical agents while allowing oxygen and carbon dioxide to pass through the material. The chemical protective poncho is specially adapted to fit over the top of a patient and chemically seal the lower portion of the patient while allowing the patient ambulatory freedom. The system also includes ports for intravenous access as well as a port for respiratory access. The system may also include a powered air purifying respirator which positively pressurizes the interior space of the system.

Abstract: A fire curtain assembly is presented that is collapsible for easy transport and quickly and easily assembled for use. This system includes a panel having a plurality of support members positioned in approximate parallel spaced alignment to one another across the panel. The support members have a center section and opposing end sections that selectively connect to the center section thereby forming rigid supports across the panel. End sections have a handle member that connects to a pushrod having a locking pin connected to its end. The locking pin selectively engages and disengages the center section. The handle members have detents that fit within detent sockets thereby holding the handle members in a withdrawn position or an inserted position.
