Abstract

Zinc phosphide is a toxic chemical agent used as a rodenticide. The effects are on heart, lung, kidney and gastrointestinal tract. Metabolic acidosis, high amylase, liver damage, hypotension, shock and cardiac arrhythmia is observed. Forty-year-old male patient evaluated with a history of taking zinc phosphide containing rat poison in order to commit suicide. Respiratory distress, arrhythmias, commonly involuntary muscle contraction, metabolic acidosis, coagulation disorders, amylase, AST and LDH levels were determined. Term follow-up after intensive care unit and was discharged favor. In this paper, for the purpose of suicide zinc phosphide our experiences in the field of public information in the cases of ICU follow-up treatment process is intended to share the accompaniment.

Özet

Çinko fosfür rodentisit olarak kullanılan toksik kimyasal bir ajandır. Etkileri kalp, akciğer, böbrek ve gastrointestinal sistem üzerinedir. Metabolik asidoz, amilaz yüksekliği, karaciğer hasarı, hipotansiyon, şok ve kardiyak aritmi görülmektedir. Kırkbir yaşında erkek hasta özkıyım amacıyla çinko fosfür içeren fare zehiri alımı hikayesiyle değerlendirildi. Solunum sıkıntısı, aritmi, istemsiz yaygın kas kasılması, metabolik asidoz, koagülasyon bozukluğu, amilaz, AST ve LDH yüksekliği tespit edildi. Yoğun bakım takibi sonrası iyilik haliyle taburcu edildi. Bu yazıda, özkıyım amacıyla çinko fosfür alan olgunun yoğun bakım ünitesindeki takip-tedavi sürecinde yaşadığımız tecrübenin genel bilgiler eşliğinde paylaşılması amaçlanmıştır.
