Abstract:
Chemical eye/skin splashes remain a significant clinical
problem worldwide. Traditionally, potable water has
been recommended for decontamination of chemical
splashes. A number of other decontamination solutions
such as normal saline and various buffered solution have
also been recommended. More recent experimental and
clinical studies and clinical experience have demonstrated
the better efficacy of active Amphoteric Decontamination
solutions. This workshop will present these data.
The presentations will demonstrate that active Amphoteric
Eye/Skin decontamination solutions are more efficacious
that other decontamination solutions.
