Successful Treatment of Aluminium Phosphide, is it possible?
author
Abstract:
Background: The utilization of pesticides like AlP has expanded in the current years and enhanced the amount and nature of horticultural items in various developing nations. Considering that in addiction research centers, many cases of suicide with rice tablet have been observed and various methods have been proposed for the treatment, it was decided to examine different methods and to finally compare the effectiveness of these methods with experiences and observations in the present study. Methods: 30 articles were compiled from prestigious scientific databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Elsevier, from 2010 to 2017. The search was carried out in English, using “aluminum phosphide,” “treatment” and “rice tablet” as the keywords. Results: Phosphine creates free oxygen radicals in body tissues, it has been demonstrated that organs with a higher requirement for oxygen (heart, lung, kidney, and liver) show higher sensitivity to the harm prompted by phosphine gas, which is consistent with the histopathological changes in these organs after death. In vitro experiences recommend that phosphides are retained as too tiny particles of unhydrolysed salt that for all time associate with free hemoglobin and hemoglobin in untouched erythrocytes (rat and human) to create a haemichrome. Conclusion: Many articles refer to successful treatment of rice tablets. While some factors are not considered. Considering these issues and the importance of obtaining the patient's history and taking into account clinical affairs as well as mere research, the effectiveness of the treatment methods mentioned in the study requires further consideration and investigation of all factors.

Successful Treatment of Aluminium Phosphide Poisoning: A Case Report
Aluminium phosphide (AlP) is used to kill rodents in grain storage. It produces phosphine gas which is toxic for mitochondria. The exact mechanism of action is unclear, but phosphine is thought to produce toxicity by blocking cytochrome-c oxidase, which inhibits oxidative phosphorylation and result in cell death. This poisoning has a high mortality, and survival is unlikely if more than 1.5 g i...

Aluminium phosphide is used to control rodents and pests in grain storage facilities. It produces phosphine gas, which is a mitochondrial poison. Unfortunately, there is no known antidote for aluminium phosphide intoxication, but our recent experience with a case showed that rapid prevention of absorption by coconut oil might be helpful. In the present case, we used the same protocol in a 28-ye...

Aluminum phosphide has high toxicity when it is ingested, and in case of contact with moisture, phosphine gas is released. Aluminum phosphide poisoning causes metabolic acidosis, arrhythmia, acute respiratory distress syndrome and shock, and there is no specific antidote. A 17-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital because of aluminum phosphide poisoning with 1500 mg of aluminum pho...
full textA Case Report of Successful Treatment of Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning
Introduction: Aluminum phosphide is one of the most common causes of poisoning in the country. It liberates lethal phosphine gas when it comes in contact either with atmospheric moisture or with hydrochloric acid in the stomach. It mainly attacks the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Eating even small amounts of this toxin can lead to death. This study reports a case of successful treatme...

Aluminium phosphide (AlP) is a highly toxic pesticide that inhibits cytochrome oxidase c and causes oxidative stress. Death results from refractory cardiogenic shock due to myocardial dysfunction. There is very little information regarding extracorporeal life support in severe AlP poisoning. Although several therapies are available, none are curative. We report on the use of an intra-aortic bal...
