Childhood poisonings are among the major causes of the admission to emergency units. In this study, we aimed retrospectively to determine the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of childhood poisoning among our patients. This study consisted of 1168 cases who admitted to pediatric emergency unit of our institution due to poisoning between 01/01/2011 and 14/06/2015. Poisonings were common at 13-48 months (44.18%). The most common poisoning agent was drugs with 545 cases (47.9%), while the second common factor was carbon monoxide poisoning with 283 cases (24.9%). Analgesic / antipyretic agents and muscle relaxants were common agents that leads to drug poisonings(127cases, 21.67%); getting multi drugs(20.3%) and mood stabilizers followed them. Among mood stabilizers, tricyclic antidepressants were the most causes of drug poisonings. 792 cases(67.8%) exposed to poisoning agent by digestion (67.8%) and 301cases (25.7%) by inhalation. Drugs appeared to be primer poisoning agents in our study. Unlike the previous studies in Turkey; poisoning by opioid analgesics and anti-neoplastic agents were also found. Although childhood poisonings are often circumvented without sequelae, they are stil major causes of admission to emergency units.

Objective: Due to the hot climate of the Southeastern Anatolia Region, snake poisoning is common, which causes serious mortality and morbidity. We aimed to present the clinical course, complications and treatment approaches of patients hospitalized with snakebites.Methods: One-hundred and eight pediatric patients treated in the hospital for snakebites, excluding dry bite, were included in the study during a 5-year period. Gender, age, bite site, month, time, type of intervention in the field, symptoms, laboratory findings, complications, tetanus vaccination and antivenom administration were recorded by reviewing patient files. Results:The patients were aged between 10.2+3 (2-15) years and 72 (66.7%) were males. Seventy-three (67.6%) of patients were from rural areas. The bites were mostly from the lower extremity, at between 12-18 o'clock. Grade 1 patients were excluded from the study. At the time of admission, there were 47 (43%) grade 2 and 31 (28%) grade 3 patients. It was observed that with increased grade, higher levels of white blood cell count, glucose level and hospital stay were seen (p<0.01), and the grade increased as the hospital admission time increased (p:0.024). A negative correlation was found between the length of hospital stay and the platelet level (p=0.016). The most common complications were tissue necrosis (13%) and compartment syndrome (9.2%). There was a positive correlation between grade and compartment syndrome (P=0.001). Antivenom was administered to 80 (74%) of patients. Conclusion:Patients with snakebite poisoning should be transferred to the nearest emergency room quickly so that the management can be carried out in a timely manner. The signs of poisoning can affect not only the bitten area, but also all systems, causing multi-organ failure and even death. Therefore, patients should be frequently evaluated in terms of systemic findings. The efficacy of treatment is enhanced by aggressive supportive care and rapid administration of appropriate neutralizing antivenom.

Objective: In our study,it was a imed to determine the precaution scould be taken by examining the demographic characteristics of patients who admitted due to poisoning. Material and Methods:In ou rstudy, we examined information from the files of 300 patients who referred to Hospital Pediatric Emergency Depertman due to poisoning between January 2013 and June 2017. Results: Patients were classified according to parameter ssuch as age, sex, poisoning effectand poisoning time. 300 patients were included in the stu dy according to pre-determined criteria. The poisoning constituted (%0,62) of all urgent patients. Out of our 300 patients, 146 (%48,70) were female and 154 (%51,30) were male. There was no difference in gender between all cases of poisoning. In ou rcases, 239 (%79,70) were accidental while 61 (%20,3) were suicide poisonings. There was a difference between accidental and suicidal cases of poisoning (p <0.001). According to the cases of poisoning, weseparated 2 groups as pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. While 90 (%30,00) of the patients were poisoned by pharmacologic medicines, 205 (%68,30) of the patients were affeceted bynon-pharmacological agents. The cause of the poisoning could not be detected in 5 cases (%1,70). Among the pharmacological agents causing poisoning the most common three were paracetamol (%4,30), polypharmacy(%3,30) and SSRI groupantidepressant. The most common 3 non-pharmacological agents causing poisoning were carbonmonoxide (%27,20), caustic-corrosive agents (%20,33) and maras grass (%4,00). Conclusion:As a result, by comparing and analyzing pharmacological and non-pharmacological agents, the most important reason for the poisoning of children are medication. Increasing awareness of thisissue and taking precautionary measures will reduce the rate of poisoning greatly.
