Contents: the first-aid worker's golden rule, first treat the dominant symptom which calls for immediate action (respiratory arrest, state of shock, eye or skin injury); alphabetical index of some 300 products among those most commonly used in the large-scale chemical industry and in agriculture, with reference to appended alphabetically classified data sheets for these products; description of poisoning symptoms by groups of chemicals, in order of appearance, for different routes of entry. Appendices: first-aid schedules in event of inhalation (yellow pages), ingestion (green), contact with the skin (pink); contact with the eyes (blue). General first-aid instructions for medical emergencies due to chemical poisoning terminate this manual. |
