Emergency First Aid Measures

Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies

๐Ÿซ Inhalation Exposure

Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Symptoms:

May cause drowsiness or dizziness.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ Skin Contact

Thaw frosted parts with lukewarm water. Do not rub affected area. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Symptoms:

Contact with the liquid may cause cold burns/frostbite.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Eye Contact

Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Symptoms:

Direct contact with the liquefied gas may cause severe and possibly permanent eye injury due to frostbite from rapid liquid evaporation.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Ingestion/Swallowing
