TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Death from overdose and rapid intervention by local units JO - Clinica terapeutica A1 - Testa, P. SP - 275 EP - 288 VL - 133 IS - 5 N2 - The above report deals with the activity of four emergency units in Florence from January 1, 1984 to January 1, 1989. Altogether, a total of 180 urgent interventions for opioid or combination overdoses were performed. The average frequency of intervention was 41.8/100.000 inhabitants/year in the age groups 14-40- years. Only three patients (1.06%) died in hospital in spite of the fact that the frequency of intervention for overdose and severe overdose increased exponentially during the five-year period considered.
