Approach to Organophosphate Poisoning in the ICU
摘要
Organophosphate (OP) poisoning is a global health concern, particularly in rural areas of Asia and Africa, where pesticide use is prevalent. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated three million cases of pesticide poisoning occur annually, resulting in over 250,000 deaths. In developing countries, intentional self-poisoning is more common, whereas occupational exposure prevails in developed nations.
