[Elimination of poisons].

K Lenz

    Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift (1946)
    |October 31, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Intensive care therapy is key for treating poisoning. Enhancing poison elimination involves maintaining normal circulation, with gastric lavage often sufficient, while advanced methods are for complex cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Toxicology
    • Critical Care Medicine
    • Internal Medicine

    Context:

    • Poisoning treatment relies on intensive care principles.
    • Circulatory status significantly impacts toxin elimination efficacy.
    • Standard interventions like gastric lavage are often effective.

    Purpose:

    • To outline therapeutic strategies for poisoning.
    • To discuss methods for enhancing toxin elimination.
    • To delineate the role of advanced extracorporeal methods.

    Summary:

    • Therapeutic approaches for poisoned patients are rooted in intensive care.
    • Maintaining normal circulation enhances the body's natural poison elimination processes.
    • Gastric and gut lavage are primary treatments; hemodialysis and hemoperfusion are reserved for severe or complex poisoning cases due to higher risks and costs.
    • Forced diuresis and hyperventilation are effective only for specific toxins.

    Impact:

    • Provides a framework for managing poisoning cases.
    • Highlights the importance of circulatory support in detoxification.
    • Guides clinical decisions on selecting appropriate treatment modalities for poisoning.
