X02: Exposure to controlled fire in building or structure

Exposure to controlled fire in a building or structure is a condition where an individual has been exposed to a fire that was started intentionally. Unlike uncontrolled or accidental fires, these fires are planned and managed, often for specific purposes like construction, renovation, or emergency drills. However, even in controlled settings, exposure to fire can cause significant harm. Individuals in this scenario may experience respiratory problems from smoke inhalation, burns of varying degrees on the skin, thermal injuries to the eyes, and potential psychological trauma. In severe cases, prolonged exposure to excessive heat can lead to dehydration, heatstroke, or even shock. Moreover, the inhalation of toxic fumes may trigger latent respiratory and cardiac conditions. An individual's risk and the severity of symptoms will generally depend on the duration of exposure, proximity to the fire, the presence of protective equipment, and their overall health condition.
