To describe the patterns of melatonin calls to poison centers in Texas during 1998-2003, data on all melatonin calls reported to the Texas Poison Center Network were analyzed. During 1998-2003, there were 779 identified human exposures to melatonin identified. Of those patients with a known age, 59.1% were < 6 y. Males accounted for 54.1% of preschool-age patients while more of the older patients were female. Melatonin exposures were unintentional in 99.3% of the cases among children less than 6y and unintentional in < 41% among the older age groups. While 92.4% of exposures involving theyoungest age group were managed outside of a health care facility, 42% or less of the exposures occurring to patients > age 6 years were managed outside of a health care facility. Of those cases with a known outcome, the proportion of cases with at least minor effects rose with increasing age. The majority of melatonin exposures reported to Texas poison centers involved children < 6 y. Younger patients were more likely to be male, have unintentional exposures, have no clinical effect, and to not require management at health care facilities. The observed clinical effects and treatment methods were consistent with the literature.","PeriodicalId":23486,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary and human toxicology","volume":"46 6","pages":"345-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24851402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Use of \"Near Middle East Antivenom\" to treat African bush viper envenomation.","authors":"R F Robinson, R S Baker, S Martin, M C Casavant","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Venom from an African bush viper is primarily hemotoxic and potentially life threatening. Existing, commercialy available antivenoms may not neutralize venom of this genus. A 25-y-old male was brought to the emergency room diaphoretic and hypotensive (70/40 mmHg) after a bite from a pet African bush viper. A puncture wound on the left thumb was leaking slightly, but there was no evidence of blood loss, edema or bruising. Approximately 100 min after exposure, the patient experienced a small amount of proximal swelling. Six h after envenomation, he was admitted to the intensive care unit for monitoring. At 10 h after the bite prothrombin time (PT > 100 sec) and international ratio (INR = 9.2) were elevated. The patient was unable to coagulate. He received fresh frozen plasma, cryoprecipitate, and Near Middle East Antivenom. Improvement in clinical status and laboratory parameters were observed after each of 3 doses of antivenom (d-dimer > 1000 and fibrinogen = 137 mg/dL). The patient was monitored overnight, did not require additional antivenom and was discharged as laboratory parameters, vital signs and spread of the necrotic lesion stabilized. Near Middle East Antivenom appears effective in treatment of the hematologic sequelae secondary to African bush viper envenomation.","PeriodicalId":23486,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary and human toxicology","volume":"46 5","pages":"264-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40921576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
