Herbicide poisoning is most common method of suicide in India and it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Among different herbicidal poisonings the most predominantly found poisonings are paraquat and glyphosate. These compounds are highly toxic and their poisonings require proper management techniques. High fatality is seen in these cases which are mainly due to its inherent toxicity and lack of effective treatment. Common symptoms of these poisonings includes gastrointestinal corrosive effects with mouth and throat, epigastric pain and dysphagia, acid-base imbalance, pulmonary edema, shock and arrhythmia. Long term health effects include pulmonary fibrosis, renal failure, hepatic failure, heart failure, multi-organ failure or death. No proven antidote exists for these poisonings. So the treatment is mainly supportive. Initially gastric lavage or whole-gut irrigation using adsorbents such as Fuller's earth, bentonite or activated charcoal is recommended. In case of renal failure hemodialysis or hemoperfusion may be considered. However novel approaches like treatment with N-acetylcysteine, vitamin C, vitamin E, cyclophosphamide may also be helpful.

Introduction: Non-invasive nature of pulse oximetry allows much affordable, rapid assessment of degree of hypoxemia and helps in identication of the patients at risk. Mortality in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) depends on the severity of illness. A good scoring system for identifying the severity of illness can help to prioritize care. Triage is sorting out of patients, the main objective of which is early patient assessment to obviate harmful delay in the management. Aims And Objectives: To predict the outcome of critically ill children in pediatric ICU by using the Triage scoring system and Spo2/Fio2(SF) ratio. Materials And Methods: A hospital based prospective observational study done at Navodaya Medical College Hospital & Research Centre during January 2020 to June 2021 for a period of 18 months. A total of 125 children were studied. Data is described in terms of mean (+SD), frequencies (number of cases) and percentages. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software version 26. Results: Out of 125 children studied, 8 died. Except temperature, all other variables showed signicant association with mortality (p <0.001). Mortality was 0%, 4.88%, 28.57%, 75%, 25% and 50% for scores of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Children of score 3 or more had signicant high mortality. Among the 113 subjects who survived, mean SpO2/FiO2 ratio is 340 and among 12 subjects who died, SpO2/FiO2 ratio is 184. SpO2/FiO2 ratio is less among the children who died and can predict mortality. Conclusions: Many deaths in under ve children occurring in hospitals can be prevented if triage is followed, if any sick children are identied soon on their arrival and treatment is started immediately. SpO2/FiO2 ratio is a non-invasive and reliable tool for hypoxemia screening and predicting outcome among patients admitted to the ED.

A677100. Results: There were 344 falls including 142 cases (41.3%) with CNDs administration, and the duration of prescription were 62,622 prescription-days. From the viewpoint of length of drug effectiveness, Fall rate for CNDs were 0.16% in short-acting CNDs, 0.25% in intermediate-acting CNDs, and 0.26% in long-acting CNDs. ConClusions: This result suggested that long-acting CNDs were strongly related with falls. To prevent falls within a hospital, hospital personnel including nursing staff have to be educated about CNDs.
