First-lineapproachtothecasualtiesatthedisasterfield
Thisprotocoldescribestherapeuticinterventionsintheveryearlyperiodofthedisaster,hospitals.Duetodifficultaccesstolaboratories,clinicalfindingsaremaindeterminantsofessentiallydirectedbythesefindings.

Ontheotherhand,ifthecasualtycannotbewatchedcloselyduetochaoticdisasterconditions,mannitol-alkalinesolutionshouldbeappliedlessaggressively(i.e.4–6liters/day),toavoidinadvertentvolumeoverload,especiallyinoldervictims,whocannotpassadequatevolumesofurine(Vanholder,2000).
