Results: 654 paracetamol poisonings were treated with the new protocol; median age 29 y (15-98 y); 453 females; 576 acute and 78 staggered/chronic ingestions. In 420 (64%) acetylcysteine was stopped for low-risk paracetamol concentrations. An adverse reaction occurred in 229/654 admissions (35%; 95% CI: 31-39%): 173 (26.5%; 95% CI: 23-30%) only gastrointestinal, 50 (8%; 95% CI: 6-10%) skin only systemic hypersensitivity reactions; and three severe anaphylaxis (0.5%; 95% CI: 0.1-1.5%; all hypotension). Adverse reactions occurred in 111/231 (48%) receiving full treatment compared to 116/420 (28%) in whom the infusion was stopped early (absolute difference 20%; 95% CI: 13-28%; p < 0.0001). In 200 overdoses < 10 g, one had toxic paracetamol concentrations, but 53 developed reactions. Sixteen patients had an ALT > 1000 U/L and 24 an abnormal ALT attributable to paracetamol; all but one had treatment commenced >12 h post-ingestion. Conclusion: A 2-phase acetylcysteine infusion protocol results in a fewer reactions in patients with toxic paracetamol concentrations, but is not justified in patients with low-risk paracetamol concentrations.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:28 AEDT ]]> 2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid and bromoxynil herbicide death https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:23182 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:27 AEDT ]]> Low-dose ketamine provides poor analgesia for pain in redback spider envenoming https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:37203 Mon 31 Aug 2020 15:02:09 AEST ]]> Use of a tablet-based application for clinical handover and data collection https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:41233 Fri 29 Jul 2022 14:02:23 AEST ]]> Paediatric poisoning presentations reported to a regional toxicology service in Australia https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49420 Fri 12 May 2023 15:02:39 AEST ]]>
