Abstract

Every year many people refer to emergency department due to POISONING and some of ‎them be treated and some die because of the intensity of adverse effect. Most patients ‎who refer to emergency department are those who commit intentionally for SUICIDE ‎attempt and another group are those who are poisoned due to drug overdose. In this ‎study we reviewed annual number of death due to drug and chemical POISONINGs that ‎attend to sina hospital, Hamadan in the year 2001. This retrospective study was gather ‎based on poisoned file who refer to emergency department and died due to intensity ‎of adverse effects of POISONING. The results show that out of 1079 patients, 47 cases ‎have died because of intensity of adverse effects. MORTALITY rate in male was 74.5% ‎and in female was 25.5%. 68.1% was seen in those patients who committed SUICIDE ‎and in the second degree was seen in drug abuser (21.3%). The greatest number of ‎death (12 patients) was seen between 10-20 year old and also above 50. Poisons ‎mostly used organophosphates-opiates and herbicides successively. And other drugs ‎and chemical came after them. The most common adverse effect leading to data was ‎respiratory depression. In most cases toxicological examinations on dead body were ‎negative, when the results of such examination were positive the majority of reports ‎were about arsenic and methanol. The highest rate of death (55.3%) occurred in those ‎patients who referred to the hospital more than 6 hours after POISONING. The results ‎showed that the rate of POISONING due to organophosphate insecticides and opiates are ‎higher than other drugs in Hamadan.‏
