Filter by:In this study, the investigators aimed to study the effect of ILE in the treatment of acute fat-soluble substance poisoning,to further clarify the relevant mechanism of ILE in the treatment of fat-soluble drug poisoning,to standardize the relevant procedures of ILE detoxification treatment and further explore the adverse reactions and coping strategies of ILE treatment.
Neurological complications after acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning can range from transient headache or dizziness to cognitive dysfunction, seizure, permanent anoxic brain damages or death. A recent study reported that a lack of standard pupillary light reflex (sPLR), assessed using a pen light, was a predictor of 30-day neurological sequelae in patients with CO poisoning. Given that the basic sPLR has a poor inter-rater reliability, more objective and quantitative methods are required in the assessment of PLR. An automated pupillometer has been used in the intensive care unit to quantitatively assess the PLR. Therefore, we hypothesized that quantitative assessment of PLR might be associated with neurocognitive sequelae after acute CO poisoning. The purpose of this study was to assess the value of quantitative pupillary reactivity (NPi and qPLR) in comparison to that of sPLR in predicting neurocognitive outcome at 1 month after acute CO poisoning.
the study aim to investigate the trend of poisoning and its causative agents among different egyption people ages between 2015 and 2019
Mitochondrial and oxidative stress participate in the pathogenic mechanisms of carbon monoxide (CO)-induced toxicity. Thus, serum indicators of mitochondrial and oxidative stress could be useful for predicting neurocognitive prognosis of post-CO poisoning. This prospective observational study of consecutive patients requiring hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) for acute CO poisoning measured serum biomarkers of mitochondrial (growth differentiation factor 15 [GDF15]; fibroblast growth factor 21 [FGF21]) and oxidative (8-Oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-OHdG] and malondialdehyde [MDA]) stresses at arrival at the emergency department (0 h), and at 24 h and 7 days after HBO2 completion. We evaluated neurocognitive outcomes using the Global Deterioration Scale (GDS; favorable [1-3 points] or poor [4-7 points] outcomes).
The newly emerged corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread to all over the world, with recent estimates of more than 236 million cases diagnosed and led to 4.8 million deaths as November 20211 .Therapeutic approaches are needed to improve outcomes in patients with COVID-19 since no antiviral agent has yet been proved to be conclusively beneficial in COVID-19 infection,especially in patients with mild to moderate degree of severity There has been growing interest in the anti-parasitic drug,ivermectin, which previously was studied as an antiviral, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer actions2 .It was also reported to have an in-vitro activity against SARS-CoV-23 .Its antiviral properties was due to the action on importin 2/1 mediated nuclear transport. Ivermectin prevents the binding of viral proteins to importin 2/1 rendering the viral proteins unable to enter the nucleus and cause infection4. Several clinical studies have found a beneficial effect of ivermectin in COVID-195-9 However, some study did not find significant difference between the patient group receiving ivermectin and control group10 .Until now, the controlled trials evaluating ivermectin in COVID-19 are lacking. Ivermectin is safe, with reported side effect of less than 1%. Hence it is essential to conduct a clinical trial with ivermectin in patients with COVID-19 .The objective of this study is to establish the efficacy of ivermectin for COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate disease, compare to usual case alone.
Prospective observational follow-up study for the study and modeling of the pharmacokinetics of the free fraction of ceftriaxone in patients treated with high doses of ceftriaxone (greater than or equal to 4 grams per day).
The objective of this study is the development, implementation and management of a registry of patient data that captures clinically meaningful, real-world, data on the diagnosis, nature, course of infection, treatment(s) and outcomes in patients with complex disease globally.
Intravenous lipid emulsion is an established, effective treatment for local anesthetic systemic toxicity. It is also efficacious in animal models of severe cardiotoxicity caused by a number of other medications. Recent case reports of successful resuscitation suggest the efficacy of lipid emulsion infusion for treating non-local anesthetic overdoses across a wide spectrum of drugs. The present study will focus on the potential role of intravenous lipid emulsion as an adjuvant therapy in pesticides toxicity.
An Open-Label, Randomized Pilot Study Comparing the Safety of a Single Dose of TNX-1300 to Usual Care (UC) Alone for the Treatment of Signs and Symptoms of Acute Cocaine Intoxication in Male Emergency Department (ED) Subjects
1. Evaluation of drug overdose cases presented to Assiut university hospitals' adults and pediatric emergency departments (EDs) in one year period. 2. Evaluation the role of intensive care unit (ICU) admission in these cases and possible scoring system for common groups of drug overdose.
