Publicação: Quincy : National Fire Protection Association, Fire Analysis and Research Division, 2011Notas: Sumario: In 2010, a total of 72 on-duty firefighter deaths occurred in the U.S. This is another sharp drop from the 105 on-duty deaths in 2008 and 82 in 2009, and the lowest annual total since NFPA began conducting this annual study in 1977. Stress, exertion, and other medical-related issues, which usually result in heart attacks or other sudden cardiac events, continued to account for the largest number of fatalities. More than half of the deaths resulted from overexertion, stress and related medical issues. Of the 39 deaths in this category, 34 were classified as sudden cardiac deaths (usually heart attacks) and five were due to strokes or brain aneurysmMateria / lugar / evento: Bomberos Siniestralidad Enfermedades profesionales Enfermedades cardiovasculares Seguridad e higiene en el trabajo Accidentes de trabajo Estadísticas Estados Unidos Otros autores: LeBlanc, Paul R.
