How to prevent occupational diseases caused by high temperature

One, the treatment of heat stroke:

Mild heat stroke: patients quickly leave the hot environment, transfer to a well-ventilated place to rest, give cool drinks containing salt, give glucose saline intravenous drip if necessary.

Severe heatstroke: pyrexia: reduce body temperature, maintain circulatory and respiratory system function, correct water and electrolyte balance disorders. Heat cramps: oral salt-containing cool drinks, if necessary, give glucose saline intravenous drip. Heat exhaustion: transfer to a ventilated and cool place, oral salt-containing drinks, symptomatic treatment.

Second, high-temperature work measures to prevent heatstroke

1. Technical measures: rational design of the process, improve production equipment and operating methods. Reasonable arrangement of heat sources, as far as possible, the heat source will be arranged outside the workshop; heat pressure-based natural ventilation, arranged below the skylight; through the wind-based natural ventilation, arranged in the summer side of the prevailing wind direction downwind; heat source to take thermal insulation measures; easy to cool down the workplace and so on. Utilize water or materials with small thermal conductivity for heat insulation. Take natural ventilation, mechanical ventilation and other ventilation cooling, air-conditioning facilities installed in places with conditions.

2. Health measures: ① supply of high-temperature workers with salt drinks and supplemental nutrition, 3-5 liters of salt drinks per person per day, the salt content of the drink to 0.15% ~ 0.2% is appropriate. ② strengthen individual protection, high-temperature workers equipped with high-temperature protective clothing, protective glasses, masks, gloves, shoe covers, leg protection. The radiation intensity of high-temperature workers, should be supplied with flame-resistant, less thermal conductivity of white overalls. Ice undershirts can be worn for short periods of time for operations in places with higher temperatures (e.g., firefighters). ③ Strengthen medical preventive work, conduct pre-employment and pre-summer physical examination for high-temperature workers, and discharge occupational contraindications. ④Organizational measures: strengthen leadership, improve management, and strictly comply with national standards for high-temperature work. In the hot season, rationalize work and rest time, strengthen the rotation of operations, and ensure that high-temperature workers have sufficient sleep and rest in summer.
