Título Four case studies of acute arsine poisoning
Título original Intoxications aiguës par l'hydrogène arsénié. 4 observations [en francés]
Información bibliográfica 1982, Vol.11, No.6, p.439-442. Illus. 12 ref.
Resumen During repair work on a zinc liquation furnace 4 workers were accidentally exposed to an emission of arsine. Very acute intravascular haemolysis occurred some hours afterwards. Immediately on diagnosis exsanguinotransfusion was performed. Detailed description of symptoms and treatment. Secondary observations: course of poisoning effects and symptoms resemble those of arsenic poisoning. Regular monitoring of As blood and urine levels enabled changes in As levels to be followed, spontaneously, under exsanguinotransfusion and under haemodialysis. Haemodialysis seems to be the best method for clearance and elimination of toxics.
