	*Airbag deployment can cause ~~caustic~~ injuries from aerosolized ~~ALKALI~~ including sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate		*Airbag deployment can cause injury via multiple mechanisms, such as:
	*~~Additional mechanisms of injury~~ from direct contact~~, quick~~ deceleration, flexion and/or hyperextension ~~depending on seat belt use~~		**Caustic injuries from aerosolized alkali (including sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate)
			**Blunt trauma from direct contact with airbag
