PERSONAL SAFETY
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a
dangerous condition which occurs when the internal temperature of the
body reaches a level above normal (98.6°F, 37°C). The symptoms of
hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and a body
temperature above 98.6°F (37°C). The physical effects of hyperthermia
include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive heat, failure
to recognize the need to exit the spa, physical inability to exit the spa, fetal
damage in pregnant women, and unconsciousness resulting in a danger of
drowning.
Other booklets about spa safety are: “Children Aren’t Waterproof,” “Pool
and Spa Emergency Procedures For Infants and Children,” “Layers of
Protection” and “The Sensible Way to Enjoy Your Spa” published by NSPI.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase
the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness such as tranquilizers,
antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use the spa. Pregnant women
and persons with a medical history of heart disease, diabetes, or high
blood pressure should consult a physician before using the spa.
