An individual's fingers were potentially exposed to HF [hydrogen fluoride]. The potential HF exposure was believed to be caused by a pin hole in a glove-box glove. The glove was replaced and other glove-box gloves were inspected. The individual's fingers were rinsed and calcium gluconate cream was applied in the Radiological Control Area (RCA). As a precautionary measure, the individual was sent to the on-site medical area (within the Owner Controlled Area) for review/observation. Minor radioactive contamination, below minimum detectable activity (MDA) for the equipment, was removed from the individual's fingers at the medical area. The radioactive contamination was below radioactive release limits. In addition, at the medical area, the individual's finger was irrigated with water and additional calcium gluconate cream was applied. The individual was monitored and then released by medical personnel. No evidence of HF exposure was observed. | An individual's fingers were potentially exposed to HF [hydrogen fluoride].
