Caustic Hypocalcemia: Hydrofluoric Acid Burn
Hydrofluoric acid is a strong inorganic acid. It differs from other acids in that the fluoride ion readily penetrates the skin, causing destruction of deep tissue layers and even bone. Burns caused by hydrofluoric acid can be life-threatening. The specific antidote, calcium gluconate, can be applied topically, injected into tissue or infused intra-arterially. Emergency medical teams should be f...
متن کاملEffect of hydrofluoric acid on glucose metabolism of the mouse studied by whole-body autoradiography.
Distribution of radioactive carbon from [U-14C]glucose in the mouse poisoned by hydrofluoric acid has been studied by whole-body autoradiography. Under normal conditions, the highest autoradiographic density was found in the Harder's gland, palatine gland, sublingual gland, large intestinal mucosa, and many regions of the central nervous system 30 minutes after intraperitoneal injection of [U-1...
متن کاملA review of hydrofluoric acid burn management.
Hydrofluoric acid (HF) causes a unique chemical burn. Much of the current treatment knowledge of HF burns is derived from case reports, small case series, animal studies and anecdotal evidence. The management can be challenging because clinical presentation and severity of these burns vary widely. Plastic surgeons managing burn patients must have a basic understanding of the pathophysiology, th...
متن کاملHydrofluoric acid burn: a case report.
A case of occupational hydrofluoric acid exposure is presented, accentuating the importance of eliciting an occupational history during the initial emergency department evaluation. Patients who present with major hydrofluoric acid burns are at risk for systemic complications, including potentially fatal hypocalcemia. Information regarding the accident and workplace circumstances may well allow ...
