-CLINICAL EFFECTS
GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS
- There have been no reported cases of human poisoning with methyl phosphonic difluoride. In experimental animals, it is highly irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract and has caused chemical pneumonitis and non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema. The probable mechanism is liberation of hydrofluoric acid when in contact with moisture.
- While inhibition of erythrocyte cholinesterase has been demonstrated in rats and guinea pig blood in vitro, in vivo only guinea pigs developed anticholinesterase poisoning. It is probably that the hydrolysis product, methylphosphonofluoridate, is the active cholinesterase inhibitor.

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
-FIRST AID
FIRST AID AND PREHOSPITAL TREATMENT
- PREHOSPITAL: For ingestions, immediately give a substance containing calcium (milk, calcium carbonate antacids) or magnesium (magnesium containing antacids or laxatives). No activated charcoal. Do NOT induce emesis. HOSPITAL: No activated charcoal. If very recent ingestion of large volume, aspirate with soft nasogastric tube and then instill calcium or magnesium solutions (ie, antacids, laxatives).
-MEDICAL TREATMENT
LIFE SUPPORT
- Support respiratory and cardiovascular function.
SUMMARY
- FIRST AID - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 153 (ERG, 2004)
Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.
FIRST AID EYE EXPOSURE - Irrigate promptly with crystalloid solution (lactated ringer's or normal saline) for at least 30 minutes. Carefully evaluate for eye damage. The patient should be evaluated by an ophthalmologist following appropriate decontamination. DERMAL EXPOSURE - Prompt decontamination of the affected area is of primary importance. Specific treatment is controversial, with no single type of therapy clearly superior. Topical calcium gluconate gel or magnesium oxide paste has been successful. Local calcium gluconate infiltration may be considered in some cases. Significant systemic absorption from dermal exposure may cause symptomatic hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, and hypomagnesemia which will require aggressive treatment. ORAL EXPOSURE - Do NOT induce vomiting. Administer fluoride-binding substance (options include milk, chewable calcium carbonate tablets, milk of magnesia). Consider nasogastric or soft orogastric suction and lavage with 10% calcium gluconate if large and recent ingestion, and spontaneous emesis has not occurred. Monitor and treat hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia, hyperkalemia parenterally as needed. INHALATION EXPOSURE - Move the patient to fresh air and administer 100% humidified supplemental oxygen with assisted ventilation as required. Monitor for respiratory signs and symptoms and treat symptomatically. Nebulized calcium gluconate has been used in the treatment of HF inhalation exposure. However, its clinical efficacy is uncertain (NIOSH , 1998).

EVACUATION PROCEDURES
- Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances (ERG, 2004)
Data presented from the Emergency Response Guidebook Table of Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances are for use when a spill has occurred and there is no fire. If there is a fire, or if a fire is involved, evacuation information presented under FIRE - PUBLIC SAFETY EVACUATION DISTANCES should be used. Generally, a small spill is one that involves a single, small package such as a drum containing up to approximately 200 liters, a small cylinder, or a small leak from a large package. A large spill is one that involves a spill from a large package, or multiple spills from many small packages. Suggested distances to protect from vapors of toxic-by-inhalation and/or water-reactive materials during the first 30 minutes following the spill.
- SPILL - PUBLIC SAFETY EVACUATION DISTANCES - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 153 (ERG, 2004)
Increase, in the downwind direction, as necessary, the isolation distance of at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids in all directions.
- FIRE - PUBLIC SAFETY EVACUATION DISTANCES - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 153 (ERG, 2004)
If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions.

However, these effects are not disabling and are transient and reversible upon cessation of exposure. TEEL-2: The airborne concentration (expressed as ppm or mg/m(3)) of a substance above which it is predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals, could experience irreversible or other serious, long-lasting, adverse health effects or an impaired ability to escape. TEEL-3: The airborne concentration (expressed as ppm or mg/m(3)) of a substance above which it is predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals, could experience life-threatening adverse health effects or death.
