Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
🫁 Inhalation Exposure
Move to fresh air. If not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Get medical attention.
Symptoms:
Irritation to upper respiratory tract (coughing, shortness of breath, wheezing). Breathing in the vapours may cause CNS depression resulting in dizziness, drowsiness, headache, nausea, somnolescence, vomiting, loss of coordination, pupil dilatation, muscular debility.
🖐️ Skin Contact
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. If skin irritation occurs get medical advice /attention. Immediately rinse with large amount of water and them wash affected skin with soap and water. Get medical advice if irritation persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Symptoms:
Skin irritation symptoms may include skin reddness, dry skin, edema. The substance may be absorbed through skin.
👁️ Eye Contact
Flush affected eyes with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible). Get medical advice.
Symptoms:
Eye irritation may include redness, pain, burning sensation, tearing.
🍽️ Ingestion/Swallowing
If victim is conscious and alert rinse mouth, give 2-4 cupfuls of water. Never give anything by mouth if victim is unconscious. Get medical attention.
Symptoms:
If ingested the symptoms may include burning sensation, abdominal pain and symptoms listed in "Inhalation". Irritation to throat, esophagus, and stomach (vomiting pain in throat, esophagus, abdominal spasm).
