BAC: What’s It All About? BLOOD ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION depends on: –Weight –Gender –How much you drank. How do you know how much you drank? We have to define “one drink”

“One Drink”

Blood Alcohol Levels: So What? (8) BAL = 0.03 to 0.07 (Euphoria and excitement) Self-confident/daring Short attention span Poor judgment Fine motor skills impaired

Blood Alcohol Levels (8) BAL = (Legally drunk and losing control) Sleepy Memory loss Reaction time decreased Uncoordinated/loss of balance Blurry vision and impaired senses

Blood Alcohol Levels (8) BAL = 0.18 to 0.24 (Confusion and Misery) Confused/dizzy Highly emotional Cannot see/slurred speech Uncoordinated/sleepy May not feel pain as easily

Blood Alcohol Levels (8) BAL = 0.25 to 0.40 (Stupor) Can barely move at all Cannot respond to stimuli Cannot stand or walk Vomiting Lapse in and out of consciousness

Blood Alcohol Levels (8) BAL = 0.35 to 0.50 (Coma) Unconscious Reflexes depressed Decreased body temperature Decreased breathing rate Decreased heart rate Could die

Blood Alcohol Levels (8) BAL = Greater than 0.50 (Death) Breathing stops That says it all!

Driving Limits (6) The legal limit is.08 The legal limit for teens is.01! Teens cannot legally drink at all according to the law.
