Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:PURE OXYGEN, ESPECIALLY IF NOT
PROPERLY HUMIDIFIED, MAY CAUSE MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITATION AND
PULMONARY EDEMA AFTER 24 HOURS. AIR NORMALLY CONTAINS 20-21%
OXYGEN. AS EXPOSURE TO HIGHER CONCENTRATIONS A ND/OR GREATER THAN
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE CONTINUES SYMPTOMS OF TOXICITY MAY DEVELOP AND
INCREASE IN SEVERITY. IT MAY EFFECT RESPIRATORY, NERVOUS & CARDIAC
SYSTEM. CHRONIC: DECREASE IN LUNG FUNCTION, RE TINAL ATROPHY.
Effects of Overexposure:MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITATION AND PULMONARY EDEMA
AFTER 24 HOURS. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM EFFECTS MAY INCLUDE A
PROGRESSIVE DECREASE IN VITAL CAPACITY, TIGHTNESS IN THE CHEST AND
DISCOMFORT, COUGHING, CONGEST ION, TRACHEOBRONCHITIS, PNEUMONIA,
EDEMA, ATELECTASIS AND INCREASED DEPTH OF RESPIRATION, RAPID
PANTING OR ASTHMA-LIKE ATTACKS, APNEA IN INSPIRATORY POSITION,
FIBROBLASTIC PROLIFERATION. CARDIOVASCULA R SYSTEM EFFECTS:
BRADYCARDIA, HYPERTHERMIA, PERIFERAL VASOCONSTRICTION. OTHERS:
NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, MALAISE, SIEZURES, IMPAIRED VISION. IN PREGNANT
WOMAN, 100% OXYGEN/20 MINUTES CAN CAUSE VARIABLE FET AL CARDIAC
RATE.

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE AREA TO FRESH AIR
IMMEDIATELY. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED, PERFORM ARTIFICIAL
RESPIRATION. KEEP PERSON WARM & AT REST. TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY &
SUPPORTIVELY. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. SKIN: IT IS
UNLIKELY THAT EMERGENCY TREATMENT WILL BE REQUIRED. IF ADVERSE
EFFECTS OCCUR, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. IN CASE OF FROSTBITE, WARM
AFFECTED SKIN IN WARM WATER AT A TEMP ERATURE OF 107F. IF WARM
WATER IS NOT AVAILABLE OR IMPRACTICAL TO USE, GENTLY WRAP AFFECTED
PART IN BLANKETS, ENCOURAGE VICTIM TO EXERCISE AFFECTED PART WHILE
IT IS BEING WARMED. ALLOW CIRCULATION TO RETURN NATURALLY. GET
