Attachment B -3 <br />5.9.1.1 Heat Exhaustion <br />Caused by: Prolonged hot spell, excessive exposure, physical exertion. <br />Symptoms: Profuse sweating, weakness, dizziness, and sometimes heat cramps; <br />skin is cold and pale, clammy with sweat; pulse is thready and blood <br />pressure is low. Body temperature is normal or subnormal. Vomiting <br />may occur. Unconsciousness is rare. <br />First Aid: Move to a cooler environment immediately. Provide rest and a cool <br />drink of water or beverage like Gatorade. Seek medical attention if the <br />symptoms are severe. <br />5.9.1.2 Heat Stroke (Heat Collapse) <br />Warning: Can Be Fatal <br />Caused by: Failure of the body to regulate its temperature because excessively <br />warm weather and physical exertion has depleted it of fluids needed to <br />perspire. <br />Symptoms: 1. Weakness, dizziness, nausea, headache, heat cramps, heat <br />exhaustion, excessive sweating; skin flushed and pink. <br />2. Sweating stops (usually) and body temperature rises sharply. <br />Delirium or coma is common; skin changes from pink to ashen or <br />purplish. <br />First Aid: Immediate medical care is needed; heat stroke is very serious. The <br />body must be cooled soon. Move the victim to a cooler place, remove <br />protective clothing, and bathe in cold water. Use extreme care and <br />frequently check ABCs (airway, breathing, and circulation) if the <br />person is unconscious. <br />5.9.1.3 Frost Nip /Bite <br />Caused by: Cold air temperatures (especially if there is a wind) freezing the skin. <br />Most often the exposed skin on the face, nose and ears is affected but <br />prolonged cold may affect the hands and feet also. <br />Symptoms: 1. A reddening of the skin. <br />2. The area will blanch, or whiten, and there will be a stinging <br />sensation. Frostbite should not be allowed to proceed beyond this <br />stage. Seek a warm location immediately. <br />3. The area will become white, with a waxy appearance at this point, <br />and will go numb. Tissue damage can occur at this point and, if <br />ignored, gangrene may set in. <br />First Aid: Get indoors or to a warmer place immediately. Treat the frostbitten <br />area with lukewarm water (103 to 107 degrees F); don't use hot water <br />and absolutely do not rub the area with snow. If warm water isn't <br />available, wrap the affected area in a warm, dry cloth. Drink a warm <br />4 B1605 <br />
