LIMITED FIELD EVALUATION OF THE MILLIPORE FIELD MONITOR KIT ABOARD SUBMARINES

Abstract

A limited evaluation of the use of the Millipore Field Monitor Kit was made aboard four operating submarines. It was found that the chief drawback to the kit was that the hospital corpsmen must be thoroughly indoctrinated in its use. Self indoctrination is not possible. A few minor technical difficulties were encountered in the kits but have since been corrected by the manufacturer. The advantages are as follows: Kit is compact and portable, simple to operate, tests can be completely performed aboard submarines, results can be obtained within 24 hours, the test requires no expensive equipment and the test is relatively inexpensive to perform.
