Recent Advances In Treatment of Acute Organophosphorous Nerve Agents Poisoning
Organophosphorous (OP) chemical warfare nerve agents mainly sarin and tabun were used during the Iran-Iraq war with high mortalities. In addition to atropine and oximes, the followings have recently been used successfully for the treatment of OP poisoning. 1. Sodium Bicarbonate: Infusion of high doses of sodium bicarbonate (5 mEq/kg in 60 min. followed by 5-6 mEq/kg/day to obtain arterial blood...

متن کاملLaboratory Diagnosis of Organophosphates/Nerve Agent Poisoning
Organophosphorus inhibitors of cholinesterases (commonly called organophosphates, OP) are used in industry as softening agents, hydraulic liquids, lubricant additives, plasticizers, antioxidants, and for antiflammable modifications. They are also used in veterinary or human medicine as drugs or chemicals for the study of nervous functions. They differ in their toxicity from practically non-toxi...
متن کاملManagement of Convulsions in Nerve Agent Acute Poisoning: a Polish Perspective
Symptoms of acute poisoning with nerve agents such as organophosphorus (OP) compounds include general convulsions that could lead to brain damage if uncontrolled. Seizures are believed to be due to hyperactivity of the cholinergic system as a result of inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Evidence suggests that the seizure process could also be the result of activation of the N-methyl-d ...
متن کاملFrom the Research of Cholinesterase Reactivators to the Effective Therapy of Organophosphate/nerve Agent Poisoning
Nerve agents belong to the most toxic organophosphates (OP) in the group of cholinesterase inhibitors. They can be used as chemical warfare agents and, they can be (and were) misused by terrorists, as happened in Matsumoto city (1994) and Tokyo subway (1995). Sarin was used in these cases. Medical protection against their effect (i.e. antidotal treatment) is of prime importance (Bajgar 2004, 20...
