EDGE24: Emergency Management of Acute Poisoning
Emergency Management of Acute Poisoning
EDGE24 Emergency Medicine
EDGE24 Module 11 : Acute Poisoning
Latest Course Update: January 2024
The poisoned patient is one of the most complex emergency presentations and requires rapid assessment and stabilisation. Immediate life-threatening complications may occur (often with little or no warning) and require advanced skills in resuscitation (including airway management and vascular access).
In this module we consider the approach to the poisoned patient focusing on the "Risk Assessment" and techniques for minimising toxicity by reducing absorption, enhancing drug elimination from the body or reversing the toxic effects of the poison. Poisoning is a huge area of emergency medicine but fortunately in most circumstances we can apply our Primary Survey and Resuscitation skills and seek advice on the next step in management from databases or contacting our local Poison information service.
