The results of NFPA's 2013 fire fighter fatality study will be presented, along with two or three multiyear analyses of specific aspects of fire fighter deaths, including a look at NIOSH's investigation of deaths related to cardiac and other medical issues. NFPA standards that address issues raised in the fatality study and NIOSH investigations will also be discussed.
