N-乙酰半胱氨酸对偏二甲基肼和四氧化二氮吸入性肺损伤的保护作用 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1
目的观察N-乙酰半胱氨酸(NAC)对大剂量火箭液体推进剂偏二甲基肼(UDMH)和四氧化二氮(N2O4)吸入性急性肺损伤(ALI)的保护性作用.方法42只大鼠随机平均分为对照组、毒物暴露组(暴露组)和毒物暴露+NAC治疗组(NAC干预组).制模动物在静式染毒柜中染毒,UDMH和N2O4质量浓度分别为0.98 mg/L和0.19 mg/L,均染毒10 min.NAC干预组染毒后立即经尾静脉注射NAC150 mg/kg,3 h后再次补充50 mg/kg NAC腹腔注射;另两组均以等量生理盐水代替.各组动物均于实验后6 h测定肺组织湿/干质量比(W/D)、支气管肺泡灌洗液(BALF)蛋白含量和乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)活性、肺组织超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)和血浆丙二醛(MDA),并观察动物一般情况及组织病理学变化.结果与对照组相比,暴露组大鼠肺W/D、BALF中蛋白和LDH以及血浆MDA等均明显增加,而肺组织SOD、GSH-Px活性则明显降低;NAC干预组上述指标均有不同程度改善.暴露组大鼠有明显憋喘症状,病理学表现为明显的肺泡内渗出和肺间质水肿;而NAC干预组上述改变明显减轻.肺W/D与肺组织SOD和GSH-Px活性均呈显著负相关,相关系数r分别为-0.662和-0.707(P均<0.01).结论NAC对大剂量UDMH和N2O4吸入性ALI有保护性治疗作用,其作用机制可能与其抗氧化和防治脂质过氧化损伤有关. 相似文献

Dart RC Erdman AR Olson KR Christianson G Manoguerra AS Chyka PA Caravati EM Wax PM Keyes DC Woolf AD Scharman EJ Booze LL Troutman WG;American Association of Poison Control Centers 《Clinical toxicology (Philadelphia, Pa.)》2006,44(1):1-18
The objective of this guideline is to assist poison center personnel in the appropriate out-of-hospital triage and initial management of patients with suspected ingestions of acetaminophen. An evidence-based expert consensus process was used to create this guideline. This guideline applies to ingestion of acetaminophen alone and is based on an assessment of current scientific and clinical information. The expert consensus panel recognizes that specific patient care decisions may be at variance with this guideline and are the prerogative of the patient and the health professionals providing care. The panel's recommendations follow. These recommendations are provided in chronological order of likely clinical use. The grade of recommendation is provided in parentheses. 1) The initial history obtained by the specialist in poison information should include the patient's age and intent (Grade B), the specific formulation and dose of acetaminophen, the ingestion pattern (single or multiple), duration of ingestion (Grade B), and concomitant medications that might have been ingested (Grade D). 2) Any patient with stated or suspected self-harm or who is the recipient of a potentially malicious administration of acetaminophen should be referred to an emergency department immediately regardless of the amount ingested. This referral should be guided by local poison center procedures (Grade D). 3) Activated charcoal can be considered if local poison center policies support its prehospital use, a toxic dose of acetaminophen has been taken, and fewer than 2 hours have elapsed since the ingestion (Grade A). Gastrointestinal decontamination could be particularly important if acetylcysteine cannot be administered within 8 hours of ingestion. Acute, single, unintentional ingestion of acetaminophen: 1) Any patient with signs consistent with acetaminophen poisoning (e.g., repeated vomiting, abdominal tenderness in the right upper quadrant or mental status changes) should be referred to an emergency department for evaluation (Grade D). 2) Patients less than 6 years of age should be referred to an emergency department if the estimated acute ingestion amount is unknown or is 200 mg/kg or more. Patients can be observed at home if the dose ingested is less than 200 mg/kg (Grade B). 3) Patients 6 years of age or older should be referred to an emergency department if they have ingested at least 10 g or 200 mg/kg (whichever is lower) or when the amount ingested is unknown (Grade D). 4) Patients referred to an emergency department should arrive in time to have a stat serum acetaminophen concentration determined at 4 hours after ingestion or as soon as possible thereafter. If the time of ingestion is unknown, the patient should be referred to an emergency department immediately (Grade D). 5) If the initial contact with the poison center occurs more than 36 hours after the ingestion and the patient is well, the patient does not require further evaluation for acetaminophen toxicity (Grade D). Repeated supratherapeutic ingestion of acetaminophen (RSTI): 1) Patients under 6 years of age should be referred to an emergency department immediately if they have ingested: a) 200 mg/kg or more over a single 24-hour period, or b) 150 mg/kg or more per 24-hour period for the preceding 48 hours, or c) 100 mg/kg or more per 24-hour period for the preceding 72 hours or longer (Grade C). 2) Patients 6 years of age or older should be referred to an emergency department if they have ingested: a) at least 10 g or 200 mg/kg (whichever is less) over a single 24-hour period, or b) at least 6 g or 150 mg/kg (whichever is less) per 24-hour period for the preceding 48 hours or longer. In patients with conditions purported to increase susceptibility to acetaminophen toxicity (alcoholism, isoniazid use, prolonged fasting), the dose of acetaminophen considered as RSTI should be greater than 4 g or 100 mg/kg (whichever is less) per day (Grade D). 3) Gastrointestinal decontamination is not needed (Grade D). Other recommendations: 1) The out-of-hospital management of extended-release acetaminophen or multi-drug combination products containing acetaminophen is the same as an ingestion of acetaminophen alone (Grade D). However, the effects of other drugs might require referral to an emergency department in accordance with the poison center's normal triage criteria. 2) The use of cimetidine as an antidote is not recommended (Grade A). 相似文献

A 20 year old woman attended the emergency department of Wollongong Hospital 11 hours after a toxic ingestion of paracetamol. After developing a significant anaphylactoid reaction to N-acetylcysteine (NAC), she was treated with cimetidine 40mg/kg intravenously as an alternative. This therapy may be an option when NAC cannot be used. 相似文献

Acetaminophen is one of the most common causes of poisoning worldwide often leading to fatalities. The objectives of this paper were to: 1) review the mechanisms and predictive factors of acetaminophen poisoning; and 2) present the most recent clinical studies aiming at improving its management. Acetaminophen overdose is responsible for a dosedependent toxic hepatitis resulting in liver necrosis. According to the French guidelines, treatment with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) should be decided based on the interpretation of plasma acetaminophen concentration in relation to the time of ingestion using a nomogram with a line starting at 150 mg/l at h4 as threshold for treatment. New protocols of NAC infusion have been studied to simplify its administration and limit its potential side effects. Indications and modalities of NAC administration remain a matter of intense debate. Investigations aim at reaching the best equilibrium between the necessity to treat all patients at risk of liver toxicity and the wish to minimize the treatment costs and side effects. New biomarkers assessed in studies focused at understanding the mechanisms of acetaminophen-related toxicity have been suggested to identify poisoned patients who are at risk of liver toxicity and allow their treatment on time. These new prognosticators should be soon available at the bedside. 相似文献

Objectives: Little is known about the clinical significance of acute ethanol coingestion around the time of acetaminophen (paracetamol) overdose. This study prospectively examined the effect of acute ethanol coingestion on risk of hepatotoxicity among patients admitted to hospital for N -acetylcysteine (NAC) therapy after deliberate acetaminophen overdose.
Methods: This was a prospective observational study and included sequential patients who presented within 24 hours of acute acetaminophen ingestion and required NAC therapy. Significant hepatotoxicity was defined by alanine transaminase > 1,000 U/L or the international normalized ratio > 1.3 after a standardized intravenous administration of 300 mg/kg NAC.
Results: There were 362 patients, including 178 (49.2%) who coingested ethanol acutely. The prevalence of hepatotoxicity was 5.1% (95% CI = 2.6% to 9.5%) in those who ingested ethanol, compared to 15.2% (95% CI = 10.7% to 21.2%) in those who did not (p = 0.0027 by chi-square proportional test). Acute ethanol intake conferred a lower risk of hepatotoxicity in patients who had acetaminophen concentrations above or below the "200-line" and was independent of the interval between ingestion and assessment.
Conclusions: Acute ethanol intake is associated with a lower risk of hepatotoxicity after acetaminophen overdose. This apparent protective effect cannot be explained solely by lower exposure to acetaminophen in this group, nor differences in the interval between ingestion and initiation of treatment. Further work is required to establish mechanisms by which ethanol might confer protection against hepatotoxicity, so as to identify novel strategies for reducing risk after acute acetaminophen ingestion. 相似文献

Background. There are few reports of acetaminophen overdose in hypothermic patients and even fewer reports describing profound hypothermia. The kinetics, risk of hepatotoxicity, and the possible dose adjustments to N-acetylcysteine (NAC) therapy are not known in this setting. Case report. A 37-year-old female was found unconscious outside in December and was brought by ambulance to a tertiary care Emergency Department (ED) following a presumed overdose of acetaminophen and diphenhydramine. She later confirmed the ingestion and reported the ingestion had occurred approximately 18 hours prior to being found. On arrival, she was profoundly hypothermic, with a core rectal temperature of 17°C. Her initial serum acetaminophen concentration was 232 mcg/mL 19 hours post ingestion of a reported dose of approximately 50 grams of acetaminophen and 2.5 grams of diphenhydramine. Active rewarming was started immediately and IV NAC was initiated using the standard treatment protocol. The patient did not develop serious signs of hepatic injury or NAC toxicity. The patient's AST and ALT peaked 12 hours after admission at 84 IU/L (ref 10–37 U/L) and 104 IU/L (ref 12–78 U/L), respectively. Her INR peaked 2 hours after admission at 1.46 (ref < 1.2). Discussion. Despite the significant ingestion of acetaminophen, delayed presentation, prolonged period of decreased responsiveness, and profound hypothermia, the patient did not develop any signs/symptoms of liver injury. NAC was administered in a standard dose during her rewarming period without apparent toxicity. The patient's absorption and/or metabolism of acetaminophen were likely slowed by her hypothermia and possibly by the anticholinergic coingestant. Initiation of IV NAC at a standard dose was apparently safe and effective in preventing hepatotoxicity as the patient was rewarmed. Conclusions. Profound hypothermia may be protective of hepatic injury in acetaminophen overdose. Delayed absorption from the coingestant, diphenhydramine, may also have played a role. IV NAC was given in a standard dose without apparent toxicity in the setting of profound hypothermia. Lastly, IV NAC, in standard dosing, appeared to be effective in preventing hepatotoxicity during rewarming in a patient with a potentially hepatotoxic concentration of acetaminophen with a coingestion of the anticholinergic agent, diphenhydramine. 相似文献

Context: Early onset acidosis from mitochondrial toxicity can be observed in massive acetaminophen poisoning prior to the development of hepatotoxicity. In this context, the efficacy of acetylcysteine to reverse mitochondrial toxicity remains unclear and hemodialysis may offer prompt correction of acidosis. Unfortunately, toxicokinetics of acetaminophen and acetylcysteine during extracorporeal treatments hemodialysis have seldom been described.Case details: An 18-year-old woman presented to the emergency department 60?minutes after ingestion of 100?g of acetaminophen, and unknown amounts of ibuprofen and ethanol. Initial assessment revealed an agitated patient. Her mental status worsened and she required intubation for airway protection. Investigations showed metabolic acidosis with lactate peaking at 8.6?mmol/L. Liver and coagulation profiles remained normal. Acetaminophen concentration peaked at 981?μg/ml (6496?μmol/L). Pending hemodialysis, the patient received 100?g of activated charcoal and an acetylcysteine infusion at 150?mg/kg over 1?hour, followed by 12.5?mg/kg/h for 4?hours. During hemodialysis, the infusion was maintained at 12.5?mg/kg/h to compensate for expected removal before it was decreased to 6.25?mg/kg for 20?hours after hemodialysis. The patient rapidly improved during hemodialysis and was discharged 48?hours post-admission.Toxicokinetics: The acetaminophen elimination half-life was 5.2?hours prior to hemodialysis, 1.9-hours during hemodialysis and 3.6?hours post hemodialysis. The acetaminophen and acetylcysteine clearances by A-V gradient during hemodialysis were 160.4?ml/min and 190.3?ml/min, respectively. Hemodialysis removed a total of 20.6?g of acetaminophen and 17.9?g of acetylcysteine.Conclusion: This study confirms the high dialyzability of both acetaminophen and acetylcysteine. Hemodialysis appears to be a beneficial therapeutic option in cases of massive acetaminophen ingestion with coma and lactic acidosis. Additionally, these results suggest that the infusion rate of acetylcysteine must be more than double during hemodialysis to compensate for its ongoing removal and provide similar plasma concentrations to the usual acetylcysteine regimen. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Hepatotoxicity as a result of acetaminophen(APAP) intoxication has become an important problem, but early intervention with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is effective in preventing hepatic injury. Two NAC regimens are currently approved for acute APAP intoxication: NAC administered orally every 4 hours for 72 hours, and NAC administered intravenously for 20 hours within 8 to 10 hours after ingestion of a potentially hepatotoxic amount of APAP. However, clinical observations suggest that a variable treatment duration may be more appropriate than use of these predetermined, fixed-duration protocols. OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the tolerability and efficacy of a patient-tailored NAC protocol for acute APAP intoxication by comparing the incidence of hepatotoxicity in patients receiving this protocol and in historical controls receiving 1 of 2 fixed-duration protocols: oral NAC for 72 hours and intravenous NAC for 20 hours within 8 to 10 hours after ingestion of a potentially hepatotoxic amount of APAP. METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study that included all patients admitted through the emergency department (ED) of the National Taiwan University Hospital with a diagnosis of APAP intoxication between October 1997 and October 2002. According to the patient-tailored protocol, which had been used in the ED since 1997, patients with a serum APAP concentration above the limit for possible risk based on a modified Rumack-Matthew nomogram received oral treatment with NAC 140 mg/kg, followed by maintenance doses of 70 mg/kg every 4 hours. NAC treatment was discontinued when the APAP concentration was <10 mg/L and serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) was <40 IU/L. For the purposes of assessing clinical outcomes, patients were divided into 3 groups based on duration of treatment: the short-course group (=36 hours), the intermediate-course group (37-72 hours), and the long-course group (>/=73 hours). The primary outcome measure was development of hepatotoxicity, defined as a serum AST or alanine aminotransferase concentration >1000 IU/L. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients were included in the study, 17 in the short-course group, 4 in the intermediate-course group, and 6 in the long-course group. The mean (SD) durations of NAC treatment in the respective groups were 22.1 (5.5) hours, 45.0 (8.2) hours, and 97.3 (33.2) hours. All 6 patients (22%) in the long-course group had hepatotoxicity (peak AST range, 1083-9770 IU/L); their treatment duration ranged from 80 to 164 hours. No patients in the short- or intermediate-course group had evidence of hepatotoxicity. One woman in the long-course group in whom initiation of NAC treatment was delayed by 28 hours died of fulminant hepatic failure. The overall incidence of hepatotoxicity was similar to that in the historical controls. CONCLUSIONS: In this retrospective case series inpatients who received patient-tailored NAC therapy for acute APAP intoxication, the incidence of hepatotoxicity was low and comparable to that in historical controls who received treatment with 1 of 2 fixed-duration regimens. Use of this protocol may have the potential to shorten hospital stays without increasing the risk to patients. However, the sample size was small, and the findings require confirmation in prospective clinical trials. 相似文献

Context.?We report the extraction of acetaminophen by continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHD) during treatment of an acute ingestion of 200 g with a peak recorded serum acetaminophen level of 1,614 mg/L (10,652 μmol/L).?Case details.?The patient presented with early onset of coma, metabolic acidosis, and hypotension in the absence of significant hepatic injury. In addition to N-acetylcysteine (NAC) therapy, CVVHD was performed to manage the acid–base disturbance. Flow rate, effluent volume, and serum and effluent drug concentrations were obtained at hourly intervals. During 16 h of CVVHD the acetaminophen level dropped from 1,212 to 247 mg/L.?Discussion.?The average clearance of acetaminophen by CVVHD was 2.53 L/h, with removal of 24 g of acetaminophen over 16 h. As NAC is effective in preventing hepatic injury after acute acetaminophen overdose, the role of dialysis or CVVHD is limited. 相似文献

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is the treatment of choice for acetaminophen poisoning; standard 72-h oral or 21-h intravenous protocols are most frequently used. There is controversy regarding which protocol is optimal and whether the full treatment course is always necessary. It would be challenging to address these questions in a clinical trial. We used DILIsym, a mechanistic simulation of drug-induced liver injury, to investigate optimal NAC treatment after a single acetaminophen overdose for an average patient and a sample population (n = 957). For patients presenting within 24 h of ingestion, we found that the oral NAC protocol preserves more hepatocytes than the 21-h intravenous protocol. In various modeled scenarios, we found that the 21-h NAC infusion is often too short, whereas the full 72-h oral course is often unnecessary. We found that there is generally a good correlation between the time taken to reach peak serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and the time taken to clear N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI) from the liver. We also found that the most frequently used treatment nomograms underestimate the risk for patients presenting within 8 h of overdose ingestion. V(max) for acetaminophen bioactivation to NAPQI was the most important variable in the model in determining interpatient differences in susceptibility. In conclusion, DILIsym predicts that the oral NAC treatment protocol, or an intravenous protocol with identical dosing, is superior to the 21-h intravenous protocol and ALT is the optimal available biomarker for discontinuation of the therapy. The modeling also suggests that modification of the current treatment nomograms should be considered. 相似文献

We describe the course of a toddler who ingested a massive amount of levothyroxine and review treatment options for such overdoses. A 2?-year-old boy presented shortly after an ingestion of up to 7.6 mg of levothyroxine (potentially as much as 700 μg/kg). He was initially asymptomatic, treated with oral charcoal 1 g/kg, and discharged home from the emergency department after a few hours. He returned approximately 24 hours later with a temperature of 38.5°C, heart rate of 163 beats per minute, respiratory rate of 30 breaths per minute, and blood pressure of 136/70 mm Hg. He had a slightly decreased appetite and no signs or symptoms of infection. He was admitted to hospital and treated with oral acetaminophen. The initial free thyroxine (T4) was > 100 pmol/L and free triiodothyronine (T3) was 35.3 pmol/L. The patient had desquamation of the palms and soles, hair loss, and irritability during the month following the ingestion. Resolution of the elevated free T4 occurred by 12 days post-ingestion and normalization of the thyroid-stimulating hormone by 7 weeks post-ingestion. There were no long-term sequelae. Levothyroxine overdose can result in significant complications, including seizures and arrhythmias, both of which should be monitored for. However, as our case illustrates, massive ingestion of levothyroxine in children typically follows a benign course. 相似文献
