摘要

背景:药物滥用是我们这个时代具有全球范围的主要社会医学问题之一。滥用街头毒品在成年人中呈上升趋势，被认为是一个公共卫生问题。此外，这方面的研究也很有限。本研究的目的是调查2008-2013年伊朗阿瓦士Razi医院街头药物中毒的频率。方法:采用基于医院资料的流行病学横断面研究。所有入院的街头毒品中毒病例包括2008 - 2013年(70例)。数据采用SPSS软件进行描述性统计和卡方分析。结果:在本研究的70例13-53岁人群中，施暴者出现频率最高的年龄段为30岁，男女比例为4:1。在使用的毒品中，甲基苯丙胺的比例最高。在本研究中，55.7%的病例需要入住重症监护病房，2例死亡。中毒患者最常见的症状是失去意识，最不常见的症状是呼吸窘迫。结论:根据结果，如果在紧急医疗护理的监督下，包括对呼吸道和呼吸衰竭的精心管理，低血压监测，癫痫发作和体温管理受损，则在危险暴露下中毒很少会致命。

An Investigation of the Clinical Signs, and Frequency of Street Drug Poisoning in Patients Referred to Razi Hospital of Ahvaz City, 2008-2013

Background: Drug abuse is one of the major socio-medical problems of our time with a global scope. Abusing street drugs is on the rise among adults and is considered as a public health concern. In addition, limited studies are available in this regard. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of street drug poisoning in the Razi Hospital of Ahvaz in Iran during 2008-2013. Methods: This is an epidemiological cross-sectional study based on hospital information. All admitted cases with street drug poisoning were included during 2008 to 2013 (70 patients). Data were analyzed by SPSS software using descriptive statistics and Chi-square. Results: In the current study, out of 70 cases aged 13-53 years old, the highest frequency of abusers was related to 30 years of age, and male/female ratio was 4 to 1. Among the drugs used, methamphetamine accounted for the highest rate. In this study, 55.7% of the cases needed to be admitted to the intensive care unit and 2 deaths were observed. The most common symptom among poisoned patients includes loss of consciousness and the least common symptom is respiratory distress. Conclusion: According to the results, it can be concluded that the poisoning will be rarely fatal in case of dangerous exposure, if they are under supervision of emergency medical attentions, including the careful management of airways and respiratory failure, hypotension monitoring, seizure and impaired management of body temperature.
