Airbags can be lifesaving during a motor vehicle accident (MVA), but airbag deployment has been the cause of dermatologic injuries including irritant dermatitis, as well as thermal, friction, and chemical burns. A highly corrosive alkaline aerosol composed of sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, and metallic oxides is released during airbag deployment. We present the case of a 35-year-old man who developed a bullous reaction to released by-products from airbag deployment during an MVA.
安全气囊在机动车事故 (MVA) 中可以救命,但安全气囊的展开也会导致一些皮肤科损伤,包括刺激性皮炎,以及热、摩擦和化学灼伤。安全气囊展开时会释放出一种由氢氧化钠、碳酸氢钠和金属氧化物组成的腐蚀性很强的碱性气溶胶。我们报告了一例 35 岁男性患者的病例,他在 MVA 中因安全气囊展开而产生的副产物引起了大疱反应。
