Kamha AA, Al Omary IY, Zalabany HA, Hanssens Y, Adheir FS: Organophosphate poisoning in pregnancy: a case report. Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol. 2005 May;96(5):397-8.
A 42-year-old pregnant woman (26 weeks of gestation, G (4) P (0+3)) presented at the emergency department with a two-hour history of dizziness, blurred vision and repeated vomiting. These symptoms started during the use of an undiluted insecticide liquid (diazinon 60 EC) while cleaning a small non-aired bathroom. After clinical and laboratory confirmation for organophosphate poisoning (plasma pseudocholinesterase levels 161 U/l), treatment with atropine and pralidoxime was started. She recovered within 7 days and delivered a healthy baby 12 weeks later (Apgar score 9 and 10) by elective cesarean section. The child showed no signs or symptoms of organophospate, atropine or pralidoxime exposure. |
