One hundred and twenty-nine patients (25.5%) out of 505 consecutive cases of self-poisoning admitted to a non-teaching poisoning treatment centre run as part of an acute medical unit are reviewed in detail. All of them were severely poisoned and would possibly have died without admission to hospital. Despite considerable limitations in the medical, nursing, and laboratory facilities available a very low mortality rate was achieved by practising intensive supportive and conservative care, supplemented on occasion by a forced alkaline diuresis.
在一家作为急性医疗单元一部分运作的非教学性中毒治疗中心收治的505例连续自中毒病例中,对129例患者(25.5%)进行了详细回顾。他们均中毒严重,若未入院治疗很可能已经死亡。尽管可用的医疗、护理和实验室设施存在相当大的局限性,但通过实施强化支持性和保守性护理,并偶尔辅以强制碱性利尿,死亡率非常低。
