ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the effects and outcomes of acute poisoning in children who are admitted to the Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Units at Sohag University Hospital. Acute poisoning can happen either by accident or on purpose, and it poses a significant health risk to children, especially those under five years old and teenagers. The study aims to understand the types of poisons that children are exposed to, how these cases impact their health, and what can be done to prevent these incidents in the future.
If your child is between 1 month and 18 years old and has been admitted to the hospital for suspected acute poisoning, they may be eligible to participate in this trial. Participants will be monitored and receive care as part of their hospital treatment. This research is important because it helps improve awareness and prevention strategies to reduce the number of poisoning cases in children, ultimately aiming to protect young lives and support families in the community.
