Emergency First Aid Measures

Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies

🫁 Inhalation Exposure

Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. When breathing is difficult, properly trained personnel may assist affected person by administering oxygen. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist. Place unconscious person on their side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as collar, tie or belt.

Symptoms:

May cause respiratory irritation.

🖐️ Skin Contact

Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash skin with soap and water. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues. Wash clothing and clean shoes thoroughly before reuse.

Symptoms:

No specific health hazards known.

👁️ Eye Contact

Rinse immediately with plenty of water. Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.

Symptoms:

Causes serious eye irritation.

🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing

Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Remove any dentures. Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Immediately give a couple of glasses of water or milk, provided the victim is fully conscious. Stop if the affected person feels sick as vomiting may be dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless under the direction of medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Place unconscious person on their side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as collar, tie or belt.

Symptoms:

No specific health hazards known.

🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required

Get medical attention if symptoms are severe or persist.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.
