Abstract

Objective: to evaluate treatment measures for patients with non-opium drugs of abuse poisoning at Poison Control Center, Bach Mai Hospital. Subjects and Methods: A observational study included 72 poisoned non-opium drugs poisoning patients treated at Poison Control Center Bach Mai Hospital from 1/2017 to 6/2019. Results: The drugs found in the study were Amphetamine (29.2%), MET (22.2%), MDMA (19.4%), THC (20.8%), Ketamine (8.3%). The applied treatment measures for patients were resuscitation and supportive therapy: cardiovascular support, using vasopressors (1,4%), increased diuresis (98.6%); Respiratory support 25% (oxygen 19.4%; mechanical ventilation 5.6%, the most in the ketamine group); Using sedation 43.1% (the most in the amphetamine group 61.9%; using diazepam was 90.3%). The outcome: recovery (91.7%), mental disorder 8.3%. Conclusion: There was no specific antidote, so the treatment required for poisoning of non-opium drugs was a combination of aggressive resuscitation measures and symptomatic treatment.
