Abstract

The effects of tear gases on the upper and lower airways are related to their irritant and inflammatory properties. Those effects cause to different diseases including rhinitis, asthma, asthma aggravation, toxic pneumonitis, respiratory insufficiency. Gas masks are adviced for prevention. Ideal prevention is not to use tear gases.

Özet

Göz yaşartan gazların üst ve alt solunum yolları üstündeki etkileri irritan ve inflamasyon yaratan özelliklerine bağlı olarak gözlenmektedir. Bu etkiler rinit, astım, astım alevlenmesi, toksik pnömonitis ve solunum yetmezliği gibi farklı tablolar yaratmaktadır. Korunmada gaz maskesi kullanımı önerilmektedir. İdeal korunma göz yaşartan gazların kullanılmamasıdır.
