The role of the United Kingdom national poisons information service (NPIS) in the diagnosis of death according to neurological criteria in poisoned and non-poisoned patients.
The diagnosis of death by neurological criteria (DNC) requires the exclusion of any clinical effect attributable to xenobiotics. We undertook a retrospective analysis of enquiries to the National Poisons Information Service (NPIS) relating to DNC over a 10-year period. Enquiries were categorised as toxicological, where exposure to a non-therapeutically administered xenobiotic was implicated in the clinical presentation and non-toxicological where exposure to the xenobiotic was not the primary cause of the clinical state. The frequency of enquiry to the NPIS regarding xenobiotics and DNC demonstrates that it remains a valuable source of expert advice.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Intensive Care Society (JICS) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that strives to disseminate clinically and scientifically relevant peer-reviewed research, evaluation, experience and opinion to all staff working in the field of intensive care medicine. Our aim is to inform clinicians on the provision of best practice and provide direction for innovative scientific research in what is one of the broadest and most multi-disciplinary healthcare specialties. While original articles and systematic reviews lie at the heart of the Journal, we also value and recognise the need for opinion articles, case reports and correspondence to guide clinically and scientifically important areas in which conclusive evidence is lacking. The style of the Journal is based on its founding mission statement to ‘instruct, inform and entertain by encompassing the best aspects of both tabloid and broadsheet''.
