The exposure of the pediatric population to xenobiotics is an important public health problem because children are particularly vulnerable to the unfavorable consequences of intoxications due to their age-related peculiarities, having limited physiological reserves, and poorly developed metabolic pathways. Numerous studies emphasize the importance of targeted therapeutic intervention and as soon as possible in patients with severe acute intoxications that associate signs of cardiogenic shock due to the severity of cases and the risk of adverse evolution. This paper presents a statistical analysis of the time-lapse impact between exposure to the toxicant and the toxicological examination on the patient's prognosis. Its purpose is to identify both qualitative and quantitative correlations between a series of parameters associated with unfavorable evolution and the time elapsed until the specific toxicological management is performed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
