ALCOHOL POISONING AND BINGE DRINKING Prateek Malhotra & Jerome Remblance

WHAT IS IT? Binge drinking is the consumption of large amounts of alcohol in a very short period of time. Binge drinking can cause alcohol poisoning, which can be fatal. Binge drinking becomes even more deadly when coupled with other medications or drugs, illness, stress, or an empty stomach.

Statistics A 2.1% increase in primary diagnosis alcohol conditions (198,900 for 2010/11) since the previous year and a 40% increase since 2003 (142,000). 18% of secondary school pupils aged 11 to 15 reported drinking alcohol in the week prior to interview in 2010 compared with 15 per cent of pupils in 2009 and 11 per cent in 2001. The cost of medical treatment was £2.49 million in 2011. This is an increase of 45% on the 2003 figure (£1.72 million).

Further Statistics

SYMPTOMS OF ALCOHOL POISONING Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol to the point of vomiting Semiconscious or unconscious Cold, clammy, pale, or bluish skin Slow breathing (the person breathes less than 8 times per minute or has 10 seconds or more between breaths) Vomiting while sleeping or unconscious & not waking up after vomiting

Related Health Problems 1- Anemia Heavy drinking can cause the number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells to be abnormally low. It can trigger a host of symptoms, including fatigue, shortness of breath, and lightheadedness.

Related Health Problems 2- Cirrhosis Chronic generalised liver disease A condition that is defined histopathologically and has a variety of clinical manifestations and complications, some of which can be life threatening. Pathologic features : development of fibrosis to the point that there is architectural distortion with formation of regenerative nodules ( micronodular / macronodular )

NORMAL

Cirrhosis

Related Health Problems -Cardiovascular Disease Heavy drinking, especially bingeing, makes platelets more likely to clump together into blood clots, which can lead to heart attack or stroke. Heavy drinking can also cause cardiomyopathy, a potentially deadly condition.
