First Aid

Emergency First Aid Measures

Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies

Inhalation Exposure

If exposure to vapour, mists or fumes causes drowsiness, headache, blurred vision or irritation of the eyes, nose or throat, remove immediately to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. If any symptoms persist obtain medical advice. Unconscious casualties must be placed in the recovery position. Monitor breathing and pulse rate and if breathing has failed, or is deemed inadequate, respiration must be assisted, preferably by the mouth to mouth method. Administer external cardiac massage if necessary. Seek medical attention immediately.

Symptoms:

drowsiness, headache, blurred vision or irritation of the eyes, nose or throat, cough, nausea, dizziness, weakness and drowsiness.

Skin Contact

Immediately wash exposed skin with soap and water. Drench contaminated clothing with water before removing. This is necessary to avoid the risk of sparks from static electricity that could ignite contaminated clothing. Contaminated clothing is a fire hazard. Contaminated leather, particularly footwear, must be discarded. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated skin with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation occurs.

Symptoms:

skin irritation (redness, dry skin)

Eye Contact

In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Get medical attention if irritation occurs.

Symptoms:

irritation

Ingestion/Swallowing

If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.

Symptoms:

Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage. abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, risk of serious damage to the lungs if swallowed (by subsequent aspiration).

Immediate Medical Attention Required

Seek medical attention immediately (for inhalation). Get medical attention if irritation occurs (for eye/skin contact). Get medical attention (for ingestion). If symptoms occur, get medical attention.

Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

Engineering Controls

Exposure should be limited using appropriate engineering controls (containment, LEV) and protective equipment (gloves, goggles/visor, protecitve clothing) as appropriate.

Hand Protection

Wear appropriate gloves.

Eye Protection

Wear safety glasses or chemical safety goggles as necessary to prevent eye contact.

Respiratory Protection

In the case of hazardous fumes, wear self contained breathing apparatus. See respiratory protection standard EN 137 for further information.

Skin/Body Protection

Wear appropriate protective helmet, footwear and clothing as required, taking into account also other factors in the work area.
