Emergency First Aid Measures

Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies

๐Ÿซ Inhalation Exposure

Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Do not leave the victim unattended. Keep patient warm and at rest. Immediately seek medical attention. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If unconscious place in recovery position and seek medical advice. In the event of unconsciousness, apnea or cardiac arrest (no pulse), apply cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Symptoms:

Inhalation of very high concentrations may cause asphyxia, anesthesia, CNS depresssion (primarily fatigue, dizziness and loss of concentration, with collapse, coma and death in cases of severe overexposure), and possible cardiac sensitization.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ Skin Contact

If frostbite has not occurred, immediately flush affected area with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. If frostbite has occurred, seek medical attention immediately; do not rub the affected area or flush with water. To prevent further damage, do not attempt to remove frozen clothing from affected area. Get medical attention immediately if irritation persists.

Symptoms:

Non-irritating to the skin. Dermal contact with rapidly evaporating liquid could result in freezing of the tissues or frostbite.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Eye Contact

If eye tissue is frozen, seek medical attention immediately. If tissue is not frozen, thoroughly flush the eyes with large amounts of clean low-pressure water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. If irritation persists seek medical attention.

Symptoms:

Freezing of the tissues or frostbite. If irritation persists.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Ingestion/Swallowing

Ingestion is not a route of exposure for gases.

Symptoms:

Ingestion is not a route of exposure for gases.

๐Ÿšจ Immediate Medical Attention Required

Immediately seek medical attention (for inhalation). If frostbite has occurred, seek medical attention immediately (for skin contact). If eye tissue is frozen, seek medical attention immediately. Get medical attention immediately if irritation persists (for skin and eye contact).

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically. Treatment of overexposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. Treat frost-bitten areas as needed.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

๐Ÿญ Engineering Controls

Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.

๐Ÿงค Hand Protection

Wear insulated gloves if contact with liquid is possible. The selected gloves must satisfy the European norm standard EN 511 for protection against the cold.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Eye Protection

Safety glasses are the minimum requirements. Use chemical type goggles and face shield when handling liquified gases. The selected goggles or glasses must satisfy the European norm standard EN 166.

๐Ÿ˜ท Respiratory Protection

When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. Use only approved supplied air or self-contained breathing apparatus operated in positive pressure mode. If needed, wear a supplied air respirator conforming to a European norm standard such as EN 139 or equivalent. Wear a respirator conforming to EN 371 with Type AX filter designed for low boiling compounds.

๐Ÿฆบ Skin/Body Protection

Clothing such as insulated impervious gloves to protect against exposure to cold liquid or gas should be worn. Choose body protection according to the amount and concentration of the dangerous substance at the work place. Use PPE that is chemical resistant to the product and prevents skin contact. Fire retardant clothing is appropriate for routine occupational use. The selected clothing must satisfy the European norm standard EN 533.
