background: cardiac toxicity is one of the life-threatening effects of severe organophosphate (op) poisoning. we presented a patient with severe op poisoning, in cardiovascular shock poorly responsive to conventional treatments, who could be resuscitated successfully with intravenous lipid emulsion (ile) therapy. case report: a 26-year-old female was admitted to our emergency department who had...

background: phthalates are widely used as plasticizers in polyethylene terephthalate (pet) products. several pharmaceutical products have been stored in pet containers, and due to serious health effects of phthalates, migration levels of them into pharmaceutical products must be determined. in the present study, leaching levels of four common phthalate esters including di-n-butyl phthalate (dbp...

background: long surgery causes hypothermia and increased bleeding and can increase the arterial blood lactate levels during anesthesia. it causes cellular hypoxia and its complications. considering the core temperature of the patient during surgery it can prevent hypoxia. this study aimed to compare the effects of different temperatures on the core temperature and the concentrations of lactate...

the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of intravenous magnesium sulfate on patients with copd exacerbation requiring hospitalization. in this randomized clinical trial 30 patients with copd exacerbation were studied. patients were randomly assigned to group a (case) who concurrent with standard therapy received 2g magnesium sulfate in normal saline infused in 20 minutes on days one...

the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of medication errors happened during the preparation and administration of intravenous (iv) drugs. this study was designed as prospective cross-sectional evaluations by direct unconcealed observation in a setting consisted of orthopedic, general surgery and gastroenterology wards of a teaching hospital. participants were those patients hospit...

background: intravenous drug users (ivdus) who share needles/syringes and practice sexual behaviors, are the most important group in the transmission of blood-borne infection diseases such as hepatitis c virus (hcv). therefore identification of prevalent high-risky behaviors among ivdus to detect the most route of transmission among them is essential to develop harm reduction programs among ivd...

background: hypothermia is one of the problems occurring during surgery, which can happen due to thermoregulation mechanism isorders and intake of low temperature iv fl uids, and may cause increase in blood pressure, heart rate, intracranial pressure,oxygen consumption, pain, and discomfort to the patient. the rate of esarean section in our country is three times more than the global standard. ...

Objective(s): Existing studies have demonstrated that intravenous and intramyocardial-administrated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) lead to tissue repair after cardiac disorders. We compared the efficiency of both administration methods.Materials and Methods: A rat model of isoproterenol-induced heart failure (ISO-HF) was established to co...
