Emergency First Aid Measures

Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies

๐Ÿซ Inhalation Exposure

Remove the casualty into fresh air and keep him immobile. Seek medical treatment immediately. In case of respiratory standstill give artifical respiration by respirator and send for a doctor.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ Skin Contact

In case of contact with skin wash off immediately with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing immediately, even underwear and shoes. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists.

๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Eye Contact

In case of contact with eyes rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Ingestion/Swallowing

Call for a doctor immediately. Provide for plenty of water to be drunken in small gulps (dilution effect). Additionally medical charcoal tablets should be given (1 spoon of medical charcoal suspension in a glass of water).

Symptoms:

vomiting Gastrointestinal complaints

Medical Treatment

If swallowed, induce vomiting (if conscious). If swallowed flush stomach, then activated charcoal (carbo medicalis) and sodium sulfate.
