Abstract

Poisoning is a common reason for admission to the intensive care unit. Most cases are due to deliberate self-harm with common poisons; however, there are occasional unusual poisons which require more detailed assessment. Patients are often obtunded or unwilling to co-operate so a knowledge of toxidromes can help to identify symptoms that are related to a particular group of drugs, and therefore influence management. The management of poisoned patients is generally supportive, including measures to reduce absorption and increase elimination, but can also include the use of specific antidotes and techniques to remove poisons.
中毒的病人
中毒是入住重症监护病房的常见原因。大多数案件是由于故意使用常见毒药自残;然而,偶尔有不寻常的毒物需要更详细的评估。患者往往不愿意或不愿意合作,因此对毒瘤的了解可以帮助识别与特定药物组相关的症状,从而影响管理。中毒患者的管理通常是支持性的,包括减少吸收和增加消除的措施,但也可以包括使用特定的解毒剂和清除毒素的技术。
