Their most common use in mainstream medicine is in treating accidental poisoning.
A., et al. "Survival pattern in patients with acute organophosphate poisoning receiving intensive care."
L., et al. "Lead Poisoning from a Toy Necklace."
When a toothache is left untreated, a severe infection may develop and spread to the sinuses or jawbone, and eventually cause blood poisoning.
Other frequent causes of accidental injuries and deaths are fire and burn injury, accidental firearm injury, and poisoning.
Unattended children can quickly die from heat stroke or carbon monoxide poisoning.
Poisoning is a common cause of home accidents, with toddlers being the ones most vulnerable.
Children are at risk of poisoning from household and personal care products, medicines, vitamins, indoor plants, lead, and carbon monoxide.
In 2000, 91 children ages 14 and under died as a result of accidental poisoning.
Caregivers should call the Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) immediately when a poisoning incident is suspected.
However, the amount of botulinum toxin injected to treat spasticity is so small that it would not cause botulism poisoning.
When the mother has high blood pressure (hypertension) or blood poisoning (toxemia), the flow of oxygen to the fetus may be reduced, causing brain damage and mental retardation.
Many children develop lead poisoning by eating the flaking lead-based paint often found in older buildings.
Septicemia is sometimes called blood poisoning.
Salmonella food poisoning is a bacterial infection that causes inflammation (swelling) of the lining of the stomach and intestines (gastroenteritis).
Improperly handled or undercooked poultry and eggs are the foods which most frequently cause salmonella food poisoning.
Anyone may contract salmonella food poisoning, but the disease is most serious in infants, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems.
Although salmonella food poisoning occurs worldwide, it is most frequently reported in North America and Europe.
The poisoning typically occurs in small, localized outbreaks in the general population or in large outbreaks in hospitals, restaurants, or institutions for children or the elderly.
In the United States, salmonella is responsible for about 15 percent of all cases of food poisoning.
Salmonella food poisoning can occur when someone drinks unpasteurized milk or eats undercooked chicken or eggs, or salad dressings or desserts which contain raw eggs.
Chloramphenicol was the first antibiotic successfully used to treat salmonella food poisoning.
The prognosis for uncomplicated cases of salmonella food poisoning is excellent.
Prevention of salmonella food poisoning involves the proper handling and cooking of foods likely to carry the bacteria.
Because children are notoriously bad at hand washing, parents want to be particularly vigilant to make sure that careful hand washing is followed, especially if someone in the home is actually ill with salmonella food poisoning.
The most common causes of acute diarrhea are infections (the cause of traveler's diarrhea), food poisoning, and medications.
Iron poisoning is the most common form of mineral toxicity in children in the United States and is one of the leading causes of fatal poisoning in children younger than six years of age.
In one Indian study of 21 children treated for iron poisoning, four of the patients died.
Potassium is potentially quite toxic; however, potassium poisoning is usually prevented because of the vomiting reflex.
A lethal dose of iron is in the range of 200-250 mg iron/kg body weight, meaning that a child who accidentally eats 20 or more iron tablets may die as a result of iron poisoning.
Methemoglobin can accumulate in the blood as a result of nitrite poisoning.
Infants are especially susceptible to poisoning by nitrite.
Poisoning by nitrite (or nitrate after its conversion to nitrite) results in the inability of hemoglobin to carry oxygen throughout the body.
Symptoms of manganese poisoning typically occur within several months or years of exposure.
The most common form of mineral toxicity for children and adolescents in the United States is accidental poisoning from iron supplements.
Finally, there are environmental causes following birth such as lead poisoning, anoxia, or meningitis.
Heavy metal poisoning is the toxic accumulation of heavy metals in the soft tissues of the body.
The heavy metals most often implicated in human poisoning are lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium.
Heavy metal poisoning is relatively uncommon.
In children, lead ingestion is the major culprit of heavy metal poisoning.
Mercury poisoning is possible from eating contaminated fish.
The expression "mad as a hatter" comes from the mercury poisoning prevalent in seventeenth-century France among hat makers who soaked animal hides in a solution of mercuric nitrate to soften the hair.
Testing should start at six months for children at higher risk for lead poisoning.
Heavy metal poisoning may be detected using blood and urine tests, hair and tissue analysis, or x ray.
In childhood, blood lead levels above 80 mg/dL generally indicate lead poisoning; however, significantly lower levels ( 30 mg/dL) can cause mental retardation and other cognitive and behavioral problems in affected children.
In adults, symptoms of lead poisoning are usually seen when blood lead levels exceed 80 mg/dL for a number of weeks.
Symptoms of mercury poisoning may be seen when mercury levels exceed 20 mg/dL in blood and 60 mg/dL in urine.
Arsenic in the urine (measured in a 24-hour collection following 48 hours without eating seafood) may exceed 50 mg/dL in people with arsenic poisoning.
If acute arsenic poisoning is suspected, an x ray may reveal ingested arsenic in the abdomen (since arsenic is opaque to x rays).
The treatment for most heavy metal poisoning is chelation therapy.
Chelation therapy is effective in treating lead, mercury, and arsenic poisoning, but it is not useful in treating cadmium poisoning.
As of 2004, no treatment had been proven effective for cadmium poisoning.
The affected person may also require treatment such as intravenous fluids for complications of poisoning such as shock, anemia, and kidney failure.
The chelation process can only halt further effects of the poisoning; it cannot reverse neurological damage already sustained.
The total cost of alcohol use by young people, including automobile crashes, violent crime, alcohol poisoning, burns, drowning, suicide attempts, and fetal alcohol syndrome is more than 58 billion dollars each year.
Children with untreated lymphadenitis may develop abscesses, cellulitis, or blood poisoning (septicemia), which is sometimes fatal.
Severe poisoning can also lead to tingling in the scalp, fingers, and toes, muscle contractions, an elevated heart rate, rapid breathing, large drops in body temperature and blood pressure, vomiting of blood, and coma.
It can cause death of intestinal tissue (necrosis) and may progress to blood poisoning (septicemia).
Wounds that are not fresh may need the attention of a physician in order to prevent complications such as blood poisoning.
Parents should be especially careful of children who eat paint chips, because this can cause lead poisoning if the paint is from an older home in which lead paint was used.
It can cause the death (necrosis) of intestinal tissue and progress to blood poisoning (septicemia).
Food poisoning refers to illness arising from eating contaminated food.
Symptoms of food poisoning are usually gastrointestinal, such as nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.
Food poisoning is sometimes called bacterial gastroenteritis or infectious diarrhea and is sometimes incorrectly called ptomaine poisoning.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), up to 33 million cases of food poisoning are reported in the United States each year.
Although the food supply in the United States is probably one of the safest in the world, anyone can get food poisoning.
A variety of bacteria cause food poisoning, including Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Campylobacter jejuni, Escherichia coli, Shigella, and Clostridium botulinum.
Environmental toxins (heavy metals) in foods or water, and poisonous substances in certain foods such mushrooms and shellfish are other causes of food poisoning.
Institutional food preparation also increases the risk of food poisoning, especially if food is allowed to stand on warming trays, under warming lights, or at room temperature before being served.
Food poisoning is not spread from one individual to another but through direct contact with the causative bacteria, viruses, or other toxins in consumed food.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that there are from six to 33 million cases of food poisoning in the United States annually, affecting men, women, and children.
Food poisoning by E. coli occurs in three out of every 10,000 people.
One out of every 1,000 people are reported to have food poisoning caused by Salmonella; two-thirds are young people under age 20, and the majority are children under age nine.
Classic food poisoning cases are caused by a variety of bacteria.
Food poisoning symptoms occur when food-borne bacteria release toxins or poisons as a byproduct of their growth in the body.
Dehydration can result from loss of fluids through persistent vomiting and diarrhea; it is one of the most frequent and serious complications of food poisoning.
A 2001 CDC report states that culture-confirmed cases of salmonella poisoning affected almost 50,000 people in the United States.
Most cases of salmonella poisoning occur in the warm months between July and October.
Symptoms of food poisoning, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, and fever, begin eight to 72 hours after eating food contaminated with salmonella.
It is difficult to estimate the number of annual cases of Staphylococcus food poisoning because its symptoms are so similar to those caused by other food-borne bacteria.
Victims may miss a day of school or work but never see a doctor for confirmation of food poisoning.
Symptoms of E. coli poisoning are slower to appear than those caused by other food-borne bacteria.
The ingestion of only a few hundred Campylobacter bacteria can cause food poisoning symptoms, which may begin two to five days after eating contaminated food.
The symptoms of food poisoning by Shigella organisms may resemble meningitis and a differential diagnosis must be made by isolating the causative bacteria.
Infant botulism is much more likely to be fatal than other food poisoning infections.
Infant botulism is a special form of food poisoning not related to the food-borne toxins that cause adult botulism.
Adult botulism outbreaks are usually associated with toxins found in home-canned food, although poisoning occasionally results from eating commercially canned or vacuum-packed foods.
Individuals with any signs of botulism poisoning must receive immediate emergency medical care to increase their chance of survival.
One important part of diagnosing food poisoning is the need for doctors and community health professionals to determine if a number of people have eaten the same food and show the same symptoms.
If this can be proven, food poisoning is strongly suspected.
Many cases of food poisoning go undiagnosed, since a definite diagnosis is not necessary to effectively treat the symptoms.
Treatment of food poisoning, except for botulism, focuses on preventing or correcting dehydration by replacing critical fluids and electrolytes lost through vomiting and diarrhea.
In very serious cases of food poisoning, medications may be given to stop abdominal cramping and vomiting.
Modifying the diet while recovering from food poisoning is usually recommended.
For food poisoning other than botulism, two homeopathic remedies, either Arsenicum album or Nux vomica, are recommended to help reduce symptoms.
Most cases of food poisoning (except botulism) clear up on their own within one week without medical assistance.
Complications of salmonella food poisoning may include arthritis-like symptoms that occur three to four weeks after infection.
Adults usually recover from E. coli poisoning without medical intervention, but many children require hospitalization for contamination with this organism.
Food poisoning is almost entirely preventable by practicing good sanitation and good food handling techniques.
Infant botulism is perhaps the most difficult poisoning to prevent, because what goes into an infant's mouth is often beyond control.
Symptoms of food poisoning can appear as early as an hour after consuming the contaminated food or up to several days later.
Everything You Need to Know about Food Poisoning.
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning occurs when carbon monoxide gas is inhaled.
Anyone who is exposed to CO becomes sick, and the entire body is involved in CO poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is the leading cause of accidental poisoning in the United States.
The symptoms of CO poisoning and the speed with which they appear depend on the concentration of CO in the air and the rate and efficiency with which a person breathes.
Emergency room physicians have the most experience diagnosing and treating CO poisoning.
In some cases, the skin, mucous membranes, and nails of a person with CO poisoning are cherry red or bright pink.
Although most CO poisoning is acute, or sudden, it is possible to suffer from chronic CO poisoning.
Little is known about chronic CO poisoning, and it is often misdiagnosed.
The main reason to suspect CO poisoning is evidence that fuel is being burned in a confined area, for example, a car running inside a closed garage, a charcoal grill burning indoors, or an unvented kerosene heater in a workshop.
Under these circumstances, one or more persons suffering from the symptoms listed above strongly suggests CO poisoning.
In the absence of some concrete reason to suspect CO poisoning, the disorder is often misdiagnosed as migraine headache, stroke, psychiatric illness, food poisoning, alcohol poisoning, or heart disease.
Concrete confirmation of CO poisoning comes from a carboxyhemoglobin test.
Immediate treatment for CO poisoning is to remove the victim from the source of carbon monoxide gas and into fresh air.
Depending on the severity of the poisoning, 100 percent oxygen may be given with a tight fitting mask as soon as it is available.
In severe cases of CO poisoning, individuals are given hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
The speed and degree of recovery from CO poisoning depends on the length of exposure to the gas and the concentration of carbon monoxide.
Although the symptoms of CO poisoning may subside in a few hours, some affected persons show memory problems, fatigue, confusion, and mood changes for two to four weeks after their exposure to the gas.
Carbon monoxide poisoning is preventable.

Gram-negative organisms are responsible for many diseases, including gonorrhea, pertussis (whooping cough), salmonella poisoning, and cholera.
Lead poisoning occurs when a person swallows, absorbs, or inhales lead in any form.
Acute lead poisoning, which is somewhat rare, occurs when a relatively large amount of lead is taken into the body over a short period of time.
Chronic lead poisoning is a common problem in children that occurs when small amounts of lead are ingested over a longer period.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines childhood lead poisoning as a whole-blood lead concentration equal to or greater than 10 micrograms/dL.
Over the long term, lead poisoning in a child can lead to learning disabilities, behavioral problems, and even mental retardation.
At very high levels, lead poisoning can cause seizures, coma, and even death.

The symptoms of chronic lead poisoning take time to develop, however.
It is also known that certain genetic factors increase the harmful effects of lead poisoning in susceptible children; however, these factors are not completely understood.
Lead poisoning is also harmful to adults, in whom it can cause high blood pressure, digestive problems, nerve disorders, memory loss, and muscle and joint pain.
Acute lead poisoning, while less common, shows up more quickly and can be fatal.
Testing should start at six months for children at risk for lead poisoning.
