Aim:
This study used the Delphi method and clinical expert discussions to develop an acute paraquat poisoning clinical nursing pathway to standardize acute paraquat poisoning nursing care.
Background:
In clinical practice, especially in basic-level hospitals, there is no unified standard pattern of treatment and nursing care for patients with paraquat poisoning.
Methods:
An extensive literature search was used to gather current clinical guidelines for treating paraquat poisoning which were then compiled into a Delphi expert letter of inquiry questionnaire which was sent to a panel of 12 experts.
Results:
A preliminary draft of the clinical nursing pathway table for acute paraquat poisoning with a standard hospitalization period of 21 days was established, with 6, 23, and 152 classes and I, II, and III indicators determined. The clinical nursing pathway table reduced the randomness of work, avoided nursing interruptions or omissions caused by negligence, and simplified the writing of nursing documents.
Conclusions:
The clinical nursing pathway can promote and improve the nursing care quality and management efficiency and has good clinical application value.

Enhanced Elimination of Poison
Antidotes serve a crucial role in counteracting the effects of poison by inhibiting enzymes responsible for producing harmful drug metabolites. In some cases, these toxic metabolites can be neutralized by endogenous cosubstrates, which are maintained at specific concentrations to prevent interaction with cellular macromolecules and subsequent cell death.
