Abstract

Assessment of an acutely poisoned patient involves the taking of an appropriate history, assessment of the level of consciousness, ventilation and circulation, a physical examination, and requesting appropriate toxicological and non-toxicological investigations. Diagnosis is based on the history, circumstantial evidence (if available), a cluster of common features (if present) and, occasionally, the results of biochemical or toxicological analyses.
