Which automotive fluids are dangerous for people?

Symptoms

Upon contact with seminal fluid, an immediate reaction of the mucous membrane occurs.
It responds with an inflammatory response, which is characterized by itching, burning and redness. The clinical picture is complemented by painful sensations and profuse lacrimation. The moving skin above and below the eye becomes swollen. This condition disappears within 20–40 minutes, sometimes persisting for several days.

This symptomatology is due to the fact that there are millions of microorganisms in the reproductive organs. That is, the seed is not a sterile liquid; if it gets into unprotected areas, it leads to discomfort.

Causes of discomfort

There are several versions of unpleasant signs when sperm gets into the eye. But all of them have not been scientifically proven. These are just assumptions of scientists and doctors.

In the head of the male reproductive cell there is an acrosome, which is filled with enzymes necessary for penetration through the mucous layer to the egg. One of the enzymes is hyaluronidase, which targets various proteoglycans found in the vitreous humor of the eye.

When sperm get on the mucous membrane, it doesn’t matter whether they are in the uterus or in the eye, they don’t understand this and begin to attack, splitting the layer of mucus in the eye. Therefore, it begins to sting and the eye turns red.

The second version is that when an unfamiliar environment (the mucous layer of the visual organ) is attacked, inflammation of the membrane begins, leading to the development of conjunctivitis. The illness is short-lived and usually goes away within an hour.

The third version is an allergic reaction to the seed. This is a rare disease, only 1 woman in 4 thousand suffers from it.

The fourth version is the ionic strength of sperm. Ionic strength refers to the number of ions contained in fluid and semen. There are more of them in male semen than in tears. Therefore, discomfort arises.

The latest - fifth version - lumps. Sperm quickly turns into lumps, which, like grains of sand, dust and glass, irritate the eyes. This is a foreign body that causes the corresponding symptoms.

How can you get poisoned with acetone?

In most cases, poisoning occurs by inhalation, when a person inhales acetone vapor for a long time. The pathology is typical for workers in industrial production where dimethyl ketone is used. Poisoning with acetone vapor is often a result of neglect of safety and health regulations. If an employee of such an enterprise does not use personal protective equipment (masks, respirators, etc.), a gradual accumulation of toxic ketones in the blood occurs, which leads to systemic poisoning of the body and damage to the respiratory tract. Chronic intoxication also develops because acetone is slowly eliminated from the body, so when working with this solvent you must strictly follow the safety instructions.

Chemical burns of the cornea of ​​the eye caused by the ingress of acetone-containing liquids into the eye are quite common in industries and in everyday life. This can happen if there is an accidental impact or contact of the skin on which acetone has come into contact with the mucous membranes of the eye. If the victim does not receive the necessary help within 10-30 minutes after the burn, complete loss of vision may occur. Immediately after toxic liquid gets into your eyes, you should rinse them thoroughly with running water - this will reduce the risk of serious complications and help prevent damage to the retina.

Ingestion

The bulk of people poisoned by oral acetone are people who were intoxicated. A drunk person who wants to continue the drinking session may confuse acetone with vodka and take it internally. This is the most dangerous type of poisoning, since dimethyl ketone in high concentrations can cause rapid death due to acute cardiac and respiratory failure, as well as the death of brain cells, leading to stroke and heart attack.

Important! A lethal dose of acetone when ingested is considered to be 50-70 ml. If the solvent has a concentration of more than 60%, the lethal dose will be 20-40 ml of acetone (depending on the age and body weight of the patient).

Composition of seminal fluid

Contrary to popular belief, sperm consists not only of nimble sperm, but also includes a full set of elements - calcium, sulfur, magnesium, and several vitamins. And all of them are neither useful nor harmful to vision.

Sperm is not only sperm, but also a large part of the periodic table

The semen also contains hyaluronic acid, which is why many people believe that a mask made from sperm can restore skin elasticity and restore its former youth. You will be surprised, but recent research has proven that this is true! This acid is also one of the components of the ocular vitreous humor, so there can be no harm to the eyes. The worst that can happen is that you accidentally rejuvenate your eyelid or part of your eyebrow.

Table. Composition and calorie content of sperm

One serving of seed is approximately 5 ml. As you can see, the expression “take a bite of protein” is quite justified...

But if you are one of those who got sperm in the eye, then you are probably wondering: where did the burning and swelling of the eyelid come from? The seed itself does not cause any unpleasant sensations, the fault is with microorganisms that live in millions in the reproductive organs (and not only). Simply put, sperm is not sterile and this is what leads to discomfort when it gets into areas of the body that are essentially defenseless. For this reason, first aid that needs to be provided after sperm gets into the eye should focus on minimizing the risk of infection of the eyeball.

Solvent poisoning.

The solvent rarely gets into the eyes, but cases of poisoning with this substance occur very often. Acetone poisoning most often occurs, since it is considered one of the most common solvents.

Acetone is used as a solvent for the production of various varnishes, film, artificial silk, as well as during repair and construction work. It is a narcotic poison that affects all parts of the central nervous system. Acetone enters the human body through the digestive and respiratory organs.

In case of poisoning, the victim experiences symptoms similar to alcohol intoxication. But the comatose state does not reach such great depths. The mucous membrane of the pharynx and oral cavity is very swollen and inflamed. There is a strong acetone smell from the mouth. If the victim is poisoned by acetone vapor, he will experience irritation of the respiratory tract, mucous membranes of the mouth, possible fainting and severe headache. In some cases, severe enlargement of the liver is observed, accompanied by pain.

There is a possibility of signs of acute renal failure (appearance of red blood cells and protein in the urine, decreased diuresis). Most victims develop pneumonia and bronchitis.

As first aid, you need to take the victim outside or into a well-ventilated area. In case of fainting, inhale a small concentration of ammonia. The victim needs rest, hot coffee or tea. In case of severe poisoning, you should immediately call a doctor.

To prevent solvent poisoning or contact with the eye, all work must be performed in special protective clothing. The room in which work is carried out must be well ventilated. Gloves are put on your hands. To protect the respiratory tract, it is recommended to use a respirator. You can also wear safety glasses.

Dmitrievsky Chemical Plant is a leading manufacturer of solvents in Russia. The production of multicomponent solvents, butyl acetate and acetic acid, has been carried out for more than 100 years. We supply solvents to leading Russian automakers. There is an option to produce a solvent according to the customer’s recipe. Solvent 646 from the Dmitrievsky Chemical Plant is a product of reference quality at an affordable price.

First actions

At the moment of climax, a man is not able to control his movement; if such a nuisance occurs, immediately remove his contact lenses and rinse his eyes with warm water. Use clean water, not from the tap. Clean the contact lens mechanically and leave it overnight in a disinfectant solution.

After removing the remaining semen from the eyelids and eyelashes, apply a warm compress to the eyes. It will help avoid irritation and itching. Eliminate other discomfort.

Then it is recommended to lie down with your eyes closed for 10–15 minutes, without blinking.

What to do if semen gets into your eyes

When sperm gets on the mucous membrane of the eyelid, first aid is required:

1. Keep calm. Do not rub or scratch your eyelids, otherwise you will increase the area of ​​contact of seminal fluid with the mucous membrane of the eye. That is, you will spread it all over the eye.
2. Remove your contact lenses. If sperm gets into your eye, the first thing you need to do is remove the lenses, rinse them with water, and place them in a special container with a solution. Avoid wearing them until symptoms subside.
3. Perform rinsing. Plain water will do, after which you can additionally rinse your eyes with tea or herbal decoction. Brew strong tea (preferably black) or anti-inflammatory herbs (chamomile, sage, calendula). Strain, cool until warm and rinse.
4. Create peace for the organ of vision. After washing, lie down with your eyelids closed for 15–20 minutes.
5. Apply antiseptics. For preventive purposes, you can instill antiseptic eye drops "Albucid" or rinse with solutions of "Furacilin", "Potassium Permanganate".
6. Use broad-spectrum antibiotics. To prevent infection or to treat already developed bacterial conjunctivitis, the following are suitable: drops “Floxal”, “Tobrex”; ointments "Tetracycline", "Erythromycin".

Features of burns with acids and alkalis

Eye burns from sulfuric acid are not as dangerous as from alkali. This is due to the fact that a film of coagulated protein forms on the eye when the irritant reacts with the mucous membrane. The film does not allow acid to penetrate deep into the eye, protecting the eye from deep damage. However, coagulation does not protect against complications if a concentrate of nitric and hydrofluoric acids gets into the eyes. An acid burn is characterized by severe pain, and sometimes even painful shock.

It is noteworthy that when the eye is damaged by alcohol, a person experiences severe pain, but minimal damage is noted. However, alcohol can absorb moisture from the lubricating fluid and the eyeball, penetrating deep into and damaging the cornea and lens. If washed in a timely manner, there will be no consequences for vision.

The most dangerous are alkali burns. In this case, there is severe dehydration and cell destruction. Alkalies provoke the decomposition of protein structures, wet necrosis develops, and when the irritant gets into the intraocular fluid, the deep structures of the eye are affected. Alkali can reach the corneal stroma and trabecular meshwork. As a result, the cornea becomes cloudy and intraocular pressure increases.

Common symptoms of a chemical burn

1. Deterioration of vision. The initial decrease in visual acuity is caused by epithelial defects, increased lacrimation, clouding and discomfort. Even with moderate to severe burns, vision may be preserved if the corneal clouding is minor, but severe deterioration will occur over time.
2. Fragments of the irritant in the arches of the outer shell. Residues of foreign matter are visible when plaster and other solid irritants enter the eye. The fragments must be removed immediately, otherwise they will continue to release toxins and worsen the damage. Only after cleansing the eye does the natural recovery process begin. Carbide and lime are the most dangerous because they dissolve in the tear and cause severe damage. If these substances come into contact, do not delay cleansing.
3. Increased intraocular pressure. A sharp increase in pressure occurs due to deformation and contraction of collagen fibers in the anterior part of the eyeball. Subsequently, the increase is associated with inflammation.
4. Inflammatory process in the conjunctiva. Even with mild damage, swelling and redness of the mucous membrane is noted. Sometimes when a burn occurs, the color of the conjunctiva changes (brown when damaged by chromic acid, yellowish when exposed to nitric acid).
5. Perilimbal ischemia. Based on the degree of blanching, one can make a prediction about the restoration of the cornea, because limbal sprout cells restore the epithelium. Severe ischemia indicates an unfavorable course of the process.
6. Cloudiness. If the cornea is transparent, a zero degree of damage is determined, and if the cornea is completely clouded, the fifth degree is determined. Complete stromal opacification makes it impossible to examine the anterior chamber of the eye.
7. Defects of the corneal epithelium. Damage to the cornea can be expressed as diffuse punctate keratitis or complete absence of the epithelium. In the latter case, the defect is poorly stained with fluorescein and may not be diagnosed. If the epithelial defect is not visible during the initial examination, prompt re-examination is recommended.
8. Corneal perforation. The symptom appears a few days after a severe eye burn, when the cornea's ability to regenerate decreases.
9. Inflammation in the anterior region. The reaction may affect single cells or have a pronounced fibrinoid form. Inflammation is more pronounced when alkali gets into the eye, since these substances can penetrate deep into the structures.
10. Scarring or other damage to the conjunctiva and eyelids. The symptom may be a problem if scarring prevents the palpebral fissure from closing.

Using eye drops

If symptoms do not go away within an hour, use antiseptic eye drops. Sperm is not a sterile liquid; drugs help fight inflammation of unknown etiology.

Antiseptics have antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties. The best drugs and safe when used independently:

• Okomistin. The drug inhibits the vital activity of most microorganisms. Use up to 6 times a day, 1 drop.
• Sulfacyl sodium. Can be used once. Instill 2 drops. If symptoms do not go away, it is allowed to use up to 5 times, then consult an ophthalmologist. Contraindicated if you are allergic to the active ingredients.
• Tobramycin. The medication is used for pregnant and lactating women. Apply 1-2 drops. every hour if symptoms are severe.

It is allowed to use any anti-inflammatory or antiseptic eye drops available in your home medicine cabinet. However, it should be understood that self-medication is dangerous, and if after a single use the symptoms do not disappear, consultation with an ophthalmologist is required.

What should be done for subsequent treatment after first aid?

Upon admission to the ophthalmology department with a complaint of a chemical burn to the eyeball, be prepared to be repeatedly rinsed with saline and treated with anti-inflammatory ointments.

You will also need to undergo a series of diagnostic tests for:

• Assessment of the degree of burn to the eyeball.
• Assessment of the level of mucosal damage.
• Checking the preservation of visual acuity.

Keep in mind! To treat a burn at home, doctors most often prescribe the following groups of medications:

• Preparations to accelerate local regeneration of eyeball tissue: drops, ointments, etc.
• Painkillers – for internal and external use.
• Anti-inflammatory drugs - rinsing solutions, ointments, drops.
• Antibiotics – if an inflammatory process is suspected.

External manifestations immediately before orgasm

• the penis enlarges as much as possible, as it is filled to capacity with blood;
• the head of the penis, on the contrary, is less elastic, but darkens (also due to a rush of blood);
• the opening of the head is moistened with secretions through the Cooper's glands of internal secretion;
• the testicles increase one and a half to two times, become elastic and tighten in the direction of the penis;
• blood pressure rises and the pulse quickens - and, as a result, redness of the skin of the face, chest, arms, and buttocks is observed; perspiration appears on the forehead, face, feet, palms;
• breathing quickens;
• the muscles of the whole body are tense, including the face is also distorted; fingers and toes are as tense as possible; nipples become hard;
• thought processes in the brain stop.

If you observed such signs, you can be sure that your boyfriend had an orgasm.

Now we should clarify a sensitive question - how can a girl determine for sure whether her boyfriend ejaculated into her during unprotected sexual intercourse. A romantic date for two in Moscow will appeal to young people in love.

Actions to take:

1. insert two fingers into the vagina, make circular movements;
2. pull out your fingers and evaluate the amount of liquid on them - if there is a lot of it, then most likely ejaculation occurred inside the vagina;
3. assessing the smell of the liquid will also help;
4. next you need to take your partner’s penis and press on the head, if during this action a certain amount of liquid comes out of the hole - this is also a sign that ejaculation occurred inside the vagina;

It would not hurt for partners to be more frank with each other. If a guy does not use a condom, and a girl does not take contraceptives, in the form of birth control pills, orally, the topic of contraception should be discussed. In case of unwanted pregnancy, you can use vaginal contraceptives - these can be vaginal tablets, suppositories, creams; or, as a last resort, practice interrupted coitus. Then the question discussed in this topic would not arise.

What if your partner has sexually transmitted diseases?

There is a chance of contracting sexually transmitted diseases. After all, sperm is non-sterile and carries millions of pathogenic microorganisms. When in contact with the vaginal environment, a woman can become ill with HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and other diseases.

Eye infections occur in a similar way and it is important to take appropriate measures immediately, and it is better to avoid getting semen in the eyes if your partner has told you about the disease.

So, it is not dangerous for your eyesight, but you can get an infection. Immediately after contact with the visual organs, first aid must be provided. Then apply antibacterial eye drops and consult an ophthalmologist.

Tests will be required every 3 months. If you are not confident in your partner’s health, you should not have sex in such a way that sperm gets into your eyes. It is necessary to use barrier contraception. It should be remembered that condoms will not provide a 100% guarantee that your partner will not contract an STD.

If you are not sure that your partner does not have sexually transmitted diseases?

If you are not completely sure that your partner does not have sexually transmitted diseases, you will have to undergo several tests.

Doctors confirm the possibility of infection in this way with hepatitis B and C, HIV infection, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia.

Getting sperm into the eye also threatens the spread of pubic lice, which can then live on eyelashes and eyebrows.

The main signs of a possible infection are prolonged itching, redness, and symptoms of conjunctivitis.

Attention! The list of mandatory tests includes STDs and infectious eye diseases. Even if you receive negative results (there is no infection), you need to make an appointment again after 3 months to clarify the result.

It is also necessary to undergo an examination and have your partner tested to find out if there is a coincidence of the infection.

When to see a doctor

If a woman has an allergic reaction, it will go away no earlier than 2 days from the moment the liquid gets on the mucous membrane. This is normal, the main thing is to use antihistamines right away.

You should not delay visiting a doctor if the redness does not go away within 3 hours after the incident. It is mandatory to visit an ophthalmologist or infectious disease specialist if your partner has previously told you about an existing sexually transmitted disease.

You should visit your doctor on the same or the next day. There is no point in postponing the visit, because the infection penetrates the mucous membrane and continues to develop. To minimize the consequences, the doctor must examine the eyes in time.

The injured woman/man will have to undergo tests and an ophthalmological examination.

Symptoms

When working with it, it is extremely important to observe safety precautions: even a few drops of solvent that get on the skin can cause a chemical burn.

Acetone is quickly absorbed into the blood. This may cause signs of severe intoxication/drug poisoning.

The lethal dose is only 50 grams.

A chemical burn to the organs of vision can be distinguished by the following symptoms :

• redness of the mucous membrane;
• veins protruding from the white of the eye;
• swelling of the eyelids;
• burning;
• sharp pain;
• difficulty opening and closing eyes;
• decreased visual acuity.

The last point is worth talking about in more detail.

In especially severe cases, complete blindness occurs.

“Well, not in the eye”: a Smolensk resident threw a cigarette butt into the stroller of a 9-month-old child

Walk under the balconies of high-rise buildings in the spring, when the snow melts. What catches your eye? That's right, trash. Or rather, continuous carpets of cigarette butts, clearly indicating the habitats of ordinary, urban pigs. And when you don’t have enough sense to throw the remains of your “sticks of death” into the trash or ashtray, there is always a chance of repeating the story with little Misha*, who one summer day had to wake up from a burning pain in his hand...

Quiet Smolensky district - Lomonosova, house 23 - just a stone's throw from the 1100th Anniversary Park. In good weather, this is where families go for a walk. Pedestrian paths run along the houses, right under the windows. Well, what's wrong with that? It’s not winter to be afraid of icicles, and it’s not the Middle Ages, when slop was poured directly onto the street, right? It is along this path that the head of the family rolls the stroller with nine-month-old Misha* . The wife stayed in the apartment for a while, and as she was leaving the entrance she heard the wild cry of her child. A moment later, he was joined in, now obscenely, by his husband’s scream.

“I immediately realized that something out of the ordinary had happened,” admits Alla* , “we’ve been together for five years, he never even raised his voice, let alone swear!”

The woman found her beloved baby in tears - from somewhere above, a still smoldering cigarette butt flew into the stroller. Burn. Pain. A quick look - where? There were several red spots on the inside of my right arm. Child - father. A quick rise to the floor, calls, knocking on the door - no answer.

“I immediately understood where it came from. Our first two floors are non-residential, on the third floor there is a family in which, we know, no one smokes, and on the fifth there is an old grandmother. Accordingly, the fourth, our neighbors, door to door. Moreover, they were the only ones with an open window, and the apartment was corner, with no balcony. So they smoke in the kitchen. There are tenants living there now, they recently moved in, a noisy family, also with small children, two for sure, maybe more. Parents often argue, children yell, but I’m not one of those who will swear at children’s screams, and I’m not interested in their family squabbles. And now she freaked out, loudly broke in on them - they heard it from another apartment and opened it. They found out what was going on and advised me to call the police, but I didn’t realize it right away. All on nerves. Then my husband managed to get up with the child, I told him to keep watch at the door, in case they come out, and Mishka herself should go to her place and treat the burns.”

Fortunately, the child more or less calmed down, emotions began to give way to the order of actions. If the police are called, the fact of the burn must be documented. Go to the hospital. But how can you go if you have to wait for the police?.. Fortunately, the law enforcement officers responded to the call quickly and within 10 minutes, in response to the cry of people in the uniform “open up, police,” the owners of the ill-fated bull jingled their keys.

“A man and a woman opened it,” Alla continues. - I’m not an expert, of course, I can’t judge for sure, but it looks like they were drunk. At first the man seemed to try to apologize. During the conversation, the phrase “well, not in the eye, thank God” . If it had hit my child in the eye, no police would have stopped me! Well, they wrote down everyone’s testimony, said they’d get in touch, and left. And we go to the doctors. At the Regional Hospital they gave us a piece of paper that said it was first degree burns, although later, when we got to the clinic, they looked and wrote - second degree. They said that if the police ask for documents, there will be an extract from the card.”

In the following days, the injured family had no time for a showdown - due to the heat, sweat often got into the wounds and the hand became inflamed, Mikhail’s temperature rose. At +30, a nine-month-old child had to endure uncomfortable bandages and clothes with long sleeves. The boy received the unfortunate burn on Sunday, June 7, but during this time there was no feedback from the neighbors who threw the bull through the window.

“You know, if, God forbid, I had done this to someone else’s child, I would have lived under that child’s door! And here there is nothing. Once we crossed paths on the stairs, I heard from that woman, “Well, what am I supposed to do, I didn’t quit.” I can give you a phone number, call and talk to him.” Yes, we were lucky that the burn was not serious at all. But now I’m going to go buy a sedative again: before Mishka fell asleep easily and quickly, but now he has the attitude that sleep is pain. That day he only managed to close his eyes when it arrived. How long will this last now? How will this affect the psyche in the future? I reassure as best I can, but at his age, how can you explain that he is safe? You can’t even sign him up for a psychologist, he’s too young.”

about five thousand on medicines, including ointments for treating burns , but the spouses unanimously claim that they do not need a penny of money from those responsible for their son’s burns. I would like purely human participation and sincere apologies. What about prosecution under the law? Formally, a fine could be issued for throwing garbage out the window, but we manage not to notice the full bags and packages flying from the upper floors, and here is a bull. Responsibility for smoking in an apartment building comes if they smoke in public places - on platforms, in elevators. Then it's up to the police?

“In this case, the examination must establish the severity of the damage,” says Ivan Slivkin, lawyer at the Slovo and Delo . — Afterwards, the investigator must make a decision on qualification; depending on the severity, such an act may lead to a criminal case (Article 118 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Causing grievous harm to health through negligence”). The examination is carried out by the police on their own during the verification of a criminal complaint. If we seek justice, I advise parents to find a lawyer - it is quite possible to recover compensation for moral damage and the cost of treatment, including rehabilitation.”

Alla herself does not hope for help from law enforcement agencies. The next day after the incident, the woman went to see Popov at Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 3, she was not allowed on the doorstep (CoVid-19, all matters), promising that they would contact her. Nobody ever got in touch. District police officer? Call - “I’m on vacation, I’ll pass on the information to another employee, they’ll contact you.” Nobody ever got in touch.

“I’m expecting a reply in 10 days that there is no crime, that’s all. Here, the guardianship authorities would rather be interested. I don’t consider it normal for parents to smoke in front of small children, living in a one-room apartment without a balcony. So today a cigarette arrived, tomorrow what, a bottle will fly to your head?”

How and how dangerous is the solvent?

Depending on the degree of danger, all currently existing chemicals. solutions that we may encounter in everyday life can be divided into 4 subtypes:

1. The most dangerous are polyurethane adhesives, etc.
2. Highly hazardous - phenol, epoxy.
3. Moderately hazardous - toluene, styrene, vinyl acetate.
4. Low-hazard - solvent 646, kerosene, white spirit, acetone, gasoline.

Contact with the first subspecies can end in failure, especially if safety rules are not followed. Solvent 646 and its analogues rarely cause burns. They can harm people prone to allergies and those with sensitive skin.

If you are going to work with the above chemicals, be sure to protect your face and hands from direct contact.

How to properly work with solvents is described at the end of the article, but now I suggest you familiarize yourself with the basics of emergency care for chemicals. burns.

We provide first aid

The first thing you need to do is calm down, don't blame or be offended by your partner. Secondly, some especially young girls may think that sperm that gets into the eye can get inside the body with the help of blood and fertilization will occur. Naturally, this is not physically possible and a woman will not be able to get pregnant in this way. All that sperm can cause in this situation is burning and redness of the eye and eyelid.

So, after you have pulled yourself together and stopped taking selfies, we move to the bathroom and thoroughly rinse our eyes with cold water. If you have albucid or sodium sulfacyl in your medicine cabinet, drop them into your eyes. After rinsing your eyes, return to the bedroom and lie down on the bed face up, while closing your eyes, you need to lie down for a few minutes in this position, and at the same time you can think about all the mistakes that led to such a sensitive situation.

And now the most important thing: if the redness and burning sensation do not go away within a few hours, then go to a clinic or hospital, most likely the infection has found a loophole in your body.

First aid and treatment

If acetone gets into your eyes, rinse thoroughly with running water. It should be performed continuously for 7-10 minutes. It is better to use a syringe without a needle for these purposes, since rinsing with your hands can result in acetone getting into undamaged areas of the eye. After rinsing, drops with anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and regenerative effects (Albucid, Ophthalmoferon, Levomycetin) must be instilled into the conjunctival sac.

First aid for systemic acetone poisoning is to rinse the stomach with a large amount of warm water (at least 1.5 liters). After washing, the use of sorbent drugs is indicated: activated carbon, diosmectite or lactulose. If a person is unconscious, he must be placed on his side and monitored so that vomit does not enter the respiratory tract or the tongue does not roll back.

If poisoning occurs through inhalation of vapors or ingestion of acetone, complex therapy in a hospital setting is indicated. To stop the inflammatory process, glucocorticosteroids (Hydrocortisone, Prednisolone, Cortisone) are used. To restore respiratory function and prevent pulmonary edema, adrenaline or aminophylline is prescribed. To remove dimethyl ketone and its vapors from the body, massive infusion therapy with saline solutions is carried out to normalize the water-electrolyte balance (“Trisol”, “Lactosol”). In case of severe renal failure, the use of diuretics is indicated: Furosemide, Lasix.

Symptomatic therapy is carried out using the following drugs:

• histamine receptor blockers (“Suprastin”, “Loratadine”);
• analgesics from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Ibuklin, Ketorolac, Ketorol);
• antispasmodics (“Papaverine”, “No-shpa”).

Important! If there are signs of respiratory failure, the patient undergoes the installation of a tracheostomy - a temporary fistula opening connecting the tracheal cavity with the environment (by introducing a medical cannula).
