5. Define acute exposure?

6. Definition A toxic exposure to acetaminophen is suggested when an adult ingests (l) >10 grams or 200 milligrams/kg as a single ingestion, (2) >10 grams or 200 milligrams/kg over a 24- hour period, or (3) >6 grams or 150 milligrams/kg per 24-hour period for at least 2 consecutive days.

7. 16 y.o female presented by family after ingestion if 20 tab Adol, 10 tab 4 hr ago and 10 tab 10 min ago

8. From when to count if multiple acute ingestion?

9. When to count if multiple acute ingestion? From 1 st dose, worst case scenario You might need to repeat the level

11. WHO 10- 7.5 Gm, or 15 tab extra strength

15. Conclusion Immediate release level at 4hr Extended release level at 4hr then repeat 4-6 hr

20. LFT

22. Which is worse? 16 y.o female healthy presented by family after ingestion if 20 tab Adol once, 4hr ago, while been drunk. 86 y.o male on anti TB, cachectic, chronic alcoholic, smoker ingested 20 tabs of adol 9 hr ago.

23. Risk factors for liver injuries?

24. Risk factors for liver injuries ●Excessive intake of acetaminophenacetaminophen ●Excessive cytochrome P450 activity ( carbamazepine, phenobarbital, and phenytoin) and antituberculosis drugs (eg, isoniazid and rifampin), (Tobacco)carbamazepinephenobarbitalphenytoinisoniazidrifampin ●Decreased capacity for glucuronidation or sulfation (Chronic liver disease, Starvation, old age) ●Depletion of glutathione stores (Chronic alcohol)

27. What are the indication of liver transplant center?

29. GUIDELINES The United Kingdom National Health Service guideline recommends treating patients at 200 μg per milliliter at 4 hours after ingestion and high-risk high-risk line that begins at 100 μg per milliliter at 4 hours. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends acetylcysteine therapy for acetaminophen poisoning, but it does not suggest indications or support any treatment protocol. The American College of Emergency Physicians recommends at 150 μg per milliliter at 4 hours, as well as for any patient with liver injury or liver failure.

31. Duration? 72-hour PO protocol: 1- A loading dose of 140 mg/kg PO 2- 70 mg/kg PO every four hours for a total of 17 doses 21-hour IV protocol: total dose of 300 mg/kg: 1- 150 mg/kg in 200 ml over the first hour 2- 50 mg/kg in 500 ml over the next 4 hours 3- 100mg/kg in 1 L over the next 16 hours

33. When to stop? At the completion of these protocols, NAC may be discontinued if the metabolism of acetaminophen is complete 1- serum acetaminophen concentration > 10 μg/mL [66 μmol/L]) and 2- there is no evidence of liver injury (normal AST concentration).

34. ACEP

35. 1. What are the indications for N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in the acetaminophen overdose patient with a known time of acute ingestion who can be risk stratified by the Rumack-Matthew nomogram? Level B recommendations. (1) Administer NAC to acute acetaminophen overdose patients with either possible or probable risk for hepatotoxicity as determined by the Rumack-Matthew nomogram to reduce the incidence of severe hepatotoxicity and mortality, ideally within 8 to 10 hours postingestion. (2) Do not administer NAC to acute acetaminophen overdose patients with no risk for hepatotoxicity as determined by the Rumack-Matthew nomogram.Level B recommendations.

36. 2. What are the indications for NAC in the acetaminophen overdose patient who cannot be risk stratified by the Rumack-Matthew nomogram? Level B recommendations. Administer NAC to patients with hepatic failure thought to be due to acetaminophen.Level B recommendations. Level C recommendations. Administer NAC to patients who have hepatotoxicity thought to be due to acetaminophen and have a suspected or known acetaminophen overdose, including repeated supratherapeutic ingestions.Level C recommendations.

38. Define chronic exposure?

40. supratherapeutic ?

41. supratherapeutic

45. Supratherapeutic approach?

47. Combined

49. Gastric emptying

53. Conclusion ?? The only indicated is gastric lavage in 1 st hr after massive overdose. (usually more than 40 g, with peak plasma paracetamol concentrations typically over 800 mg l).

54. 16 y.o female healthy presented by family after ingestion if 20 tab Adol once, 1 hr ago, while been drunk. Level 990 umol/l = 150 ug/l Umol/l /6.6 = ug/l What is next?

55. Charchol 1 g/kg, 25-100 g PO Alternatively 10 g charcoal/1 g drug ratio Minimum dose = 25 g

60. Cochrane 2006

61. Conclusion Conceder charcoal almost only in the 1 st hr, if no contraindication is expected (LOC, vomiting, bowel obstruction …)

63. Oral NAC + Charchol

67. Reduce AC action

69. Conclusion Charcoal reduce the oral NAC absorption, but over all improve outcome

70. NAC

83. 86 y.o male on anti TB, cachectic, chronic alcoholic, smoker ingested 20 tabs of adol 9 hr ago. Level 1000 umol/l Which NAC shall I use?

84. Side effect & effectiveness

93. Conclusion No clinical significant deference. IV is cost effective

98. pregnancy

103. Risk Assessment in Pregnant Women Fetal acetaminophen toxicity is rare, but adverse outcomes have been reported in all stages of pregnancy. In the early gestational period, acetaminophen toxicity can be associated with fetal death. CYP enzymes appear in the fetus during the second trimester, and third trimester or newborn at risk of toxicity. The risk assessment for and diagnostic approach to pregnant women are the same as those for nonpregnant women.
