abstract="The patients hospitalised because of acute ethanol intoxication or ethanol withdrawal syndrome at the Kraków Department of Clinical Toxicology and Detoxification Ward of J. Babiński Specialistic Hospital in the years 1997-2000 were subjected to the study. A significant increase in number of ethanol related hospitalisation was noted at the Department of Clinical Toxicology (from 1381 patients in year 1997 up to 1771 in year 2000), and at the Detoxification Ward of Babiński Hospital from 369 in 1997 and 849 patients in 2000 respectively. A significant increase in number of ethanol dependent patients admitted to the Department of Clinical Toxicology because of acute ethanol intoxication and the patients hospitalised because of ethanol withdrawal syndrome or signs of delirium tremens was noted. The same and even stronger trends in hospitalisation, particularly of those ethanol addicts presenting clinical symptoms of acute ethanol intoxication were observed at the Detoxification Ward of Babiński Hospital.<p /><p>Language: pl</p>",
