Science

Limb entrapment in machinery, such as food processors, manufacturing equipment or construction appliances, is a serious mechanism of injury that can cause severe injuries, i.e. loss of a limb, or in some cases, potentially fatal. First responders must know how to respond to these incidents to minimise harm and save life and limb.
