Predicting outcome in organophosphorus poisoning using RBC cholinesterase and serum cholinesterase values: A hospital-based longitudinal study

Predicting outcome in organophosphorus poisoning using RBC cholinesterase and serum cholinesterase values: A hospital-based longitudinal study

Background Organophosphorus (OP) poisoning is a leading cause of mortality due to self-harm in Asian countries, including India. Red blood cell cholinesterase (RBC-ChE) and serum cholinesterase (serum-ChE) levels are used for predicting outcomes. There is a paucity of literature studying the RBC-ChE...

Zusammenfassung:Background Organophosphorus (OP) poisoning is a leading cause of mortality due to self-harm in Asian countries, including India. Red blood cell cholinesterase (RBC-ChE) and serum cholinesterase (serum-ChE) levels are used for predicting outcomes. There is a paucity of literature studying the RBC-ChE levels in OP poisoning and comparing it with the serum-ChE levels.
