🔍 Key Concepts

• Operational limitations of self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) in real emergency use, such as in fire or toxic atmospheres • How equipment design can affect a responder's balance, field of vision, and ability to move • The difference between a single limitation and a combination of limitations

💭 Think About

• For each choice, picture yourself actually wearing an SCBA in a narrow passageway on a vessel—what specific physical challenges would you experience? • Ask which of the listed factors could realistically affect your safety or effectiveness while moving, seeing, and keeping your balance in an emergency. • Consider whether exam questions about safety equipment usually focus on just one drawback or on the full range of practical limitations.

✅ Before You Answer

• For each listed item, mentally test it: Does this factor really change how safely and effectively you can work while wearing an SCBA? • Verify whether the limitations mentioned (weight/center of gravity, reduced peripheral vision, restricted mobility) are all recognized practical concerns in firefighting and emergency response. • Before choosing, check if the question is asking for one main limitation or all applicable operational limitations.
