Abstract

We conducted a retrospective study of infants and children with organophosphate and carbamate poisoning who were hospitalized at our center. The study was designed to determine the clinical manifestations and complications of organophosphate and carbamate toxicity in infants and children, the usefulness of plasma cholinesterase activity assays for diagnosis, the efficacy of supportive therapy, the effect of oxime and atropine therapy in children, and helps to identify at an early stage those patients who would ultimately require ventilatory support.
