BACKGROUND Despite a significant increase in the number of patients with paracetamol poisoning in the developing world, plasma paracetamol assays are not widely available. The purpose of this study was to assess a low-cost modified colorimetric paracetamol assay that has the potential to be performed in small laboratories with restricted resources. METHODS The paracetamol assay used in this s...
Valproic acid poisoning can have mild to fatal consequences depending on its body concentration. There are rare case reports and barely any known controlled studies the use of hemodialysis as a last treatment resort. We report valproic at One Brooklyn Health/Interfaith campus, New York City, warranting intubation hemodialysis. The patient is 47-year-old male with past medical history seizure di...
Purpose: Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely available drug responsible for large part of drug-induced hepatotoxicity in developed countries. Although acetaminophen overdose cases Korea are being continuously reported, there no reports related to the level this patient's blood or laboratory analysis at emergency departments (ED). This study sought analyze toxicological and survey APAP services off...
This is a three-year retrospective review of 96 cases of paracetamol ingestions seen by KK Children's Emergency Department. Paracetamol is the commonest substance (23%) involved in childhood poisonings. More than 60% occurred in children aged one to three years old with an equal gender distribution. Eighty-six percent were accidental ingestions and the intentional ones had a significant female ...
Egleston et al report a significant difference in plasma paracetamol concen trations assayed with the AcetaSite bench assay and a standard laboratory assay. Rapid and accurate determinations of plasma paracetamol concentrations are crucial in the expeditious and appropriate administration of antidotal treatment, which prevents severe liver damage if given sufficiently early in the course of poi...
Accidental ingestion is an important preventable cause of childhood morbidity. All accidental ingestion presentations (n = 478) to a tertiary paediatric ED from January 2010 to December 2011 were analysed. These results were compared with a similar study in the same institution ten years previously in 2001 and showed that while accidental ingestions constituted a higher proportion of presentati...
BACKGROUND Acetaminophen is one of the most commonly encountered medications in self-poisoning, with a high rate of morbidity. The prevalence and characteristics of acetaminophen intoxication associated with long hospital stay in patients are not well defined. OBJECTIVES This study aims to identify the clinical and demographic factors associated with the length of in-hospital stay (LOS), and ...
STUDY OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes after acute acetaminophen poisoning in 2 large cohorts of patients treated with either the 20-hour intravenous or 72-hour oral acetylcysteine protocol. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study with historical control comparing patients treated with one of 2 acetylcysteine regimens. Data for the 20-hour group were obtained from a medical record revi...
