Speech on how to prevent gas poisoning in winter

When winter comes, gas poisoning has reached its peak again. Let's learn about gas poisoning and how to prevent it. Cherish life.

Gas poisoning is carbon monoxide poisoning. The binding capacity of hemoglobin with carbon monoxide in blood is more than 200 times stronger than that with oxygen, and the separation speed of hemoglobin and oxygen is very slow. Therefore, once people inhale carbon monoxide, oxygen loses the chance to combine with hemoglobin, so that tissues and cells can't get enough oxygen from the blood, which leads to dyspnea, convulsions and coma, and cherry red cheeks, chest skin and lips. If not treated in time, they will soon die of respiratory depression.

In the past, heating in winter was prone to gas poisoning. Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, few people will suffer from gas poisoning, but people must always be vigilant. So how to prevent gas poisoning in winter?

Odorless gas is called "silent killer", and gas poisoning is actually carbon monoxide poisoning. Gas stoves and coal stoves are the "hardest hit areas" for producing carbon monoxide. In particular, burning a stove in an unventilated room, using soil for heating, or using a gas pipeline with aging rubber pipes, and not tightening the gas switch after use may cause gas poisoning, which requires special attention. Nowadays, most people use natural gas at home. Although natural gas itself will not cause "gas poisoning", it will also release carbon monoxide if it is not fully burned. For example, the gas stove can't catch fire, but it can smell gas. In addition, if you use a gas water heater at home, you should be especially careful. If the gas is not fully burned, once the ventilation is not good and the bath time is long, gas poisoning will occur. If you turn on the heating for a long time in a car that is not driving, you will also be caught.

Gas poisoning can be judged by physical feeling. Usually, the manifestations of mild gas poisoning are: dizziness, headache, weakness of limbs, nausea and vomiting. Once any of the above situations occurs, it should be considered that it may be gas poisoning. You must quickly open the window to ventilate, turn off the stove and go outdoors at once. If it is found early, it can be recovered as soon as possible. Otherwise, the situation will get worse and worse and even lead to death.

As the poisoning situation becomes moderate, people will be fidgety, walk unsteadily, lose consciousness, and even have a shallow coma. At this time, in addition to the above preliminary operations, the patient's head should be tilted to one side to prevent vomiting from blocking the airway and causing suffocation. Conditional, you can take oxygen.

Patients with severe poisoning will be in a coma, convulsions, deep coma, and even stop breathing. At this point, open the window first, then give him CPR quickly, then put a towel in the patient's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue due to convulsions, and call 120 at the same time.

Know how to prevent gas poisoning in winter, and more importantly, don't use any electrical appliances in a room full of gas, such as turning on the range hood, turning on the light, making a cell phone, etc. , otherwise it will cause an explosion.

Use a honeycomb coal stove to keep warm in winter. Due to chimney blockage, smoke emission or closed doors and windows, coal combustion is incomplete, and a large amount of carbon monoxide cannot be discharged, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, also known as gas poisoning. Some gas water heaters may also cause carbon monoxide poisoning to consumers.

Winter is coming, everyone must pay attention to prevent gas poisoning. There are good ways to welcome everyone to talk about it and cherish life together!
