First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove the casualty into fresh air and keep him immobile. In case of breathing difficulties give oxygen. In the event of pulmonary irritation treat initially with corticoid spray, e.g. Ventolair- or Pulmicort- metered-dose aerosol. Seek medical treatment immediately. In case of respiratory standstill give artificial respiration by respiratory bag (Ambu bag) or respirator. Send for a doctor.

Symptoms: Respiratory tract irritation, coughing, shortness of breath.

Skin contact

In case of contact with skin wash off immediately with soap and water. In case of frostbite spray with lukewarm (not hot) water for at least 15 minutes. Do not remove clothing frozen to the skin. Thaw it with lukewarm water. Apply a sterile dressing. Obtain medical assistance. Seek medical treatment immediately.

Symptoms: Contact with liquid may cause cold burns/frostbite.

Eye contact

Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Call for a doctor immediately.

Symptoms: Strong eye irritation.

Ingestion

Ingestion is not considered a potential route of exposure.

Immediate Medical Attention

If necessary, give oxygen. Pulmonary oedema prophylaxis. Monitor circulation.
