1 Cold Stress From Cold Conditions Identifying And Responding To Cold Exposure Hazards 1
2 COLD STRESS FACTORS Temperature Of The Air Surrounding The Body. Body Temperature. Air Movement Around The Body. Body Movement. Length Of Exposure. 2
3 Cold Environment NormalBody Temperature 98.6º F. Body Temperature DropsBelow 86º, Control System Becomes Ineffective. Below 59º, Body Begins To ExperienceImpairment Of Many Functions. Most Hypothermia Results When Ambient TemperatureIs Between 30º And 40ºF. 3
4 Cold Environment Increased Heat Loss To The Environment MuscleHypertonus, Resulting In Shivering, Is Body s Attem pt To M aintain Body Temperature. 4
5 HYPOTHERMIA Prolonged Exposure To Cold Causes The Body To Lose Energy Faster Than ItIs Produced. Body Tem perature Drops To Lower Than Normal. Can Happen When Temperatures Are Above Freezing. 5
6 CONDITIONS AFFECTING HYPOTHERMIA Aging, Allergies,Poor Circulation,& Illness. Self-Imposed Conditions, Such As Drinking, S moking, & Taking Sedatives Also Increase Risks. Wet Clothing, Windy Conditions,& Poor Physical Condition. 6
7 HYPOTHERMIA SYMPTOMS Nu mbness, Stiffness, Drowsiness, Poor Coordination. Slow OrIrregularBreathing And Heart Rate. Slurred Speech. Cool Skin, And PuffinessIn The Face Are Com mon. 7
8 HYPOTHERMIA SYMPTO MS May Seem Apathetic About Getting Out Of Cold. Shivering And Teeth Chattering IsA Sure Sign That Body TemperatureIsToo Low. Victim FirstFeels Cold Then May Feel Mild PainIn Extremities. 8
9 HYPOTHERMIA SYMPTO MS Victim May Seem Confused & Disoriented; Memory Lapses. Worst-Case Results Can Cause Death. 9
10 SAFETY PROCEDURES Get Victim To WhereItIsWarm. Get Them Out Of Wet, Frozen, Or Tight Clothing; Keep Victim Dry. Get Them Into Loose Warm Clothes Or Blankets. Give Warm (Room Temperature) Liquids. 10
11 SAFETY PROCEDURES Do NotGive Alcohol Or Substances Containing Caffeine. Warm Center Of Body First. If Necessary, Seek MedicalAssistance & Give CPR. 11
12 FROSTBITE MostSerious, And Second Most Com mon, Cold Exposure Hazard. Nose, Ears, Cheeks, Fingers, & Toes Most Often Affected. Affected Area Doesn t Get Enough Heat & Freezes. 12
13 FROSTBITE Freezing Causes Blood Vessel Constriction. ResultsIn Lack Of Oxygen,ExcessFluid Buildup,Blistering, And Tissue Death. May NotBe Aware Anything Bad Is Happening. 13
14 FROSTBITE Recognized By Distinct Pallor Of The Exposed Skin. Skin Goes From W hite Or Grayish Yellow,To ReddishViolet, To Black. Usual Feeling OfBeing Really Cold,Then Numb. May GetA Tingling Or Aching Feeling Or Brief Pain. 14
15 FROSTBITE Damage To SkinSometimes Causes Blisters. Constricted Blood VesselsImpair Blood Flow. Can Cause Permanent Tissue Damage. 15
16 FROSTBITE Victim Can Become Unconscious. Death May Result From HeartFailure. If Necessary, Seek MedicalAssistance & Give CPR. 16
17 CARE OF FROSTBITE Don t Rub Affected Part. Don t Use Hot Baths, Or Heat Producing Devices. Don t Break Blisters. 17
18 CARE OF FROSTBITE W arm The Frozen Part With Clothing, Blankets, Or With Room Temperature Water. Once Warm, Exercise The Part. Exception: Do Not Walk On Frostbitten Feet. 18
19 DRIVING EMERGENCY PREPARDNESS Serviceable Clothing (Sweatshirt,Jeans, Coveralls, Coat). DistilledWater And Anti Freeze. Easily Stored Food (Chips, Candy Bars, Cookies,Some Canned Foods, Etc.) 19
20 DRIVING EMERGENCY PREPARDNESS M atches,in A Waterproof Container. Large Candles. Tool Kit (Pliers,Screwdrivers, Crescent Wrench,Jumper Cables,Duct Tape Electrician s Tape, Etc.) 20
21 DRIVING EMERGENCY PREDARDNESS A Couple Quarts Of Motor Oil And Multipurpose Lubricant,Such As WD 40. Ice Scraper,Sand or Kitty Litter,Traction Mat,Shovel. 21
22 DRIVING EMERGENCY PREDARDNESS Road Atlas. Reflective Triangles Or Flares. Couple Blankets Or Comforters. 22
23 BE PREPARED FOR A DRIVING EMERGENCY THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT ITEMS: A HEALTHY RESPECT FOR YOUR SAFETY IN COLD WEATHER!! AND A CELLUL A R PH O NE!! 23
24 PROTECTION Prevention Is The Best Way To Deal With Cold Stress. Don t Drink Alcohol, Bathe, Smoke, Or Take Drugs Before Being Exposed To Cold. DressIn Loose Layers Of Dry Clothing. 24
25 PROTECTION Cover Hands,Feet,Face,& Head. In ColdEnvironment, Keep Moving. Take Regular Breaks In Warm Places. 25
