Introduction Methanol poisoning is an acute medical emergency. If not recognized in time and treated properly, it can lead to a considerable magnitude of morbidity as well mortality. This article aims report cases methanol toxicity, focusing on clinical presentation, management, outcomes. Method Nine ICU-admitted patients with confirmed positive serum levels were analyzed case series at King Fa...

The minimal lethal dose of methanol in humans has not been determined. It has been suggested that about I g kg can cause death if the patient is untreated and has not consumed ethanol.43 In some clinical cases, the blood methanol content is low in the last phase of the poisoning. In three such cases blood methanol concentration was 0.275,_0.277. and 0.194 gi , respectively. On the assumption th...

The duration of hemodialysis (HD) in methanol poisoning (MP) is dependent on the methanol concentration, the operational parameters used during HD, and the presence and severity of metabolic acidosis. However, methanol assays are not easily available, potentially leading to undue extension or premature termination of treatment. Here we provide a prediction model for the duration of high-efficie...

Background: In this study we sought to investigate clinical findings (with a focus on neurologic effects) and also to analyze outcomes of a series of patients with methanol poisoning admitted to two poisoning treatment centers in Tehran, Iran. Methods: In this prospective cross-sectional study, methanol-poisoned patients admitted to departments of forensic medicine and toxicology of Loghman Hak...
