2016 年牛頭角淘大時昌迷你倉大火導致兩名消防員殉職,死因研訊今( 8 日)續。消防處救護隊目供稱,高級消防隊長張耀升被抬出火場時,雖已經沒有呼吸,但仍有微弱及較慢的脈搏。救護隊目隨即為他供應純氧,繼而施行按額提頦法,試圖使其氣管暢通。惟 3 分鐘後,張仍沒有回復呼吸,同時脈搏停頓,須馬上施行心外壓,最終送院急救。 署理消防隊目周浚楷供稱,起火當日晚上 8 時左右,與消防員何紹榮二人奉命進入火場搜索死者張耀升,同時攜帶「被救者呼吸輔助器(Rescuee Breathing Apparatus)」。他們在沿 C1 主巷前進數米後,便遇到兩位正在把張抬出的同袍,遂上前幫忙,並為已昏迷的張戴上呼吸輔助器。 隊目:不宜使用引端繩 或連人帶繩被困 周又指,由於火場環境複雜,難而找到錨點固定引端繩,加上倉內雜物隨時會倒塌,可能導致繩索斷裂及移位,故沒有在起火倉內使用。周續指,設置引端繩過程需時及技巧,戴上消防手套亦會增加綁繩難度,如執意使用的話,最壞的情況是連人帶繩一同被困。 與張同屬技術救援隊的時任高級消防隊長張振毅指,當日他與張均使用過模擬式對講機,並曾在無線電頻道上,聽到張與入口指揮官測試對講機訊號,但沒在衛士防護監察系統或對講機收到任何求救信號。 張的脈搏在數分鐘後消失 至於負責替張進行急救的救護隊目樊家文,指當晚約 8 時 06 分,看到已戴上呼吸輔助器的張被抬出,立即趨前檢查,發現他仍有脈搏,但相對較慢及微弱,同時沒有呼吸。樊見狀要求把張移至梯間,再檢查下發現仍維持原狀,遂把呼吸輔助器換成可供純氧的膠囊復甦器。惟當樊打算插喉時,張的口部緊閉未能成功,轉而使用按額提頦法,試圖使其氣道暢通,同時要求同事把擔架挪至地下梯間預備。 約 8 時 09 分,樊在地面再次替張檢查時,發現他已沒有脈搏,亦不見呼吸,遂立即施行心外壓,並在其胸口貼上心臟去顫器電極貼片,隨後緊急送院治理。據他所知,同事有在救護車上使用心臟去顫器。代表張家屬的大狀問,為何他一開始未有在張被救出時施行心外壓。樊解釋,當刻張仍有脈搏,故不需要。 案件編號:CCDI-333、334/2016(SH)消防員時昌迷你倉死因研訊
