At the same time, organ function and tissue metabolism are abnormal, which may even lead to lifelong disability or death of sick children. Due to the intake of toxic substances caused by life-threatening physiological and pathological changes and the corresponding symptoms are called poisoning. Acute poisoning occurs within a few hours and days after ingestion.

How is infantile acute poisoning caused?

Acute poisoning is one of the common diseases in pediatrics, and most of the children are poisoned by eating food by mistake, the age is mostly from one to five years old. Because children's activity ability is generally strong, but their life experience and cognitive ability are slightly insufficient, and they lack knowledge of the harm of some drugs and poisons, so the incidence of poisoning is relatively high at this age. According to the news report, the incidence rate of poisoned groups younger than five is high, but most of them are unintentional poisoning. They have a single toxic substance and a small dose of toxic substances. Their mortality is much smaller than that of adolescents. That is because most of the adolescents suffer from self injury by taking psychological or mental depression. Generally, the dosage is large, so the mortality is relatively high.

When children are sent to the hospital after acute poisoning, they often encounter the situation that the parents of the sick children can not accurately provide the intake and types of poisons, so that there is no specific detoxification measures, which easily leads to the death of the sick children in a short time. Therefore, in the case of acute poisoning, parents should try their best to provide poison, give treatment as soon as possible, strive for more rescue time, avoid further aggravation of poisoning, so as to reduce the mortality and a series of sequelae.

In acute poisoning, gastrointestinal symptoms are usually the most significant. Most of the poisons were ingestion poisoning, and a few were non ingestion poisoning. After entering the digestive tract, the toxicant directly stimulates the intestinal tract and destroys the local tissues of the digestive tract, which can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The same symptoms can also be caused by nerve reflex and systemic action after the poison is absorbed. Therefore, for children with unexplained acute gastrointestinal symptoms, attention should be paid to identify whether there is poisoning.

Children's diet can be light based, with a reasonable diet, remember to pay attention to health.
