Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Call a physician immediately. Assure fresh air breathing. If it is suspected that fumes are still present, the rescuer should wear an appropriate mask or self-contained breathing apparatus. Allow the victim to rest. If breathing stops, perform cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation is forbidden (possible poisoning of first-aider). Place the victim in the recovery position. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Symptoms:
Burns of respiratory tract. Death in extreme cases.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Obtain medical attention. Wash off immediately and plentifully with water for at least 20 - 30 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician.
Symptoms:
Causes burns. May cause severe irreversible damage.
👁️ Eye Contact
Wash immediately with plenty water (during 20 - 30 minutes), also under eyelids. Seek medical attention immediately.
Symptoms:
Causes serious eye damage. Can cause blindness.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
Seek medical attention immediately. If swallowed, rinse mouth with water (only if the person is conscious). Do not induce vomiting. Give nothing to drink.
Symptoms:
Abdominal pain. Nausea. May cause burns or irritation of the linings of the mouth, throat, and gastrointestinal tract. Death in extreme cases.
🚨 Immediate Medical Attention Required
Call a physician immediately (for inhalation). Obtain medical attention (for skin contact). Seek medical attention immediately (for eye contact and ingestion). Chemical burns must be treated promptly by a physician.
