Pericolele inhalării de gaz butan

Expunerea continuă la butan poate duce la efecte toxice.

Butanul în concentrații mari are proprietăți sufocante și narcotice, necesitând evacuarea imediată din mediul afectat și deschiderea ferestrelor pentru aerisire. Ingerarea 20 mililitri de butan pot induce otrăvire; în cazurile de inconștiență, it’s critical to remove the patient swiftly to an area with ample air flow and commence artificial respiration. Subsequent to initial first aid, urgent medical care at a hospital is essential, where medical professionals will implement emergency interventions tailored to the severity of the poisoning. Although the butan content in standard lighters is negligible and minor inhalation doesn’t typically result in poisoning, it’s prudent to avoid excessive exposure to prevent potential health risks.

Should there be discomfort from minor inhalation, it’s advisable to seek medical care without delay.
