a 17-year-old female is in or out with hematemesis after ingesting a bottle of her aunt's iron pills. Her heart rate is 117 beats per minute. Her blood pressure is 102 over 76. Ems hands you an empty bottle. A useful mnemonic to remember is 357 Magnum is a fast-shooting gun. S is for ferrous sulfate. this patient took tabs having 325mg of ferrous sulfate. Because its sulfate has an S

She's a 60-kilogram patient, so her dose is approximately 100mg/kg. A dose of 20 to 40mg/kg can cause GI symptoms. This can develop from Mallory Weiss tears or from true mucosal irritation. A dose of 60mg/kg can cause hypotension, tachycardia. Anion gap acidosis, hyperglycemia, and leukocytosis. A dose of 100mg/kg can be lethal. First, you should provide IV fluid resuscitation. Antiemetics can be provided as well. And her heart rate improves to 96 beats per minute and blood pressure to 110 over 82. She stops vomiting but continues to complain of abdominal pain. While practice patterns vary in general for ion concentrations over 500 micrograms per deciliter, deferoxamine chelation is. Note that a four-hour iron level will give you a steady state of concentration. So, we repeat iron concentration can be performed at four hours post ingestion.

I've deferoxamine can cause hypertension. Most start the infusion at 15mg/kg per hour and titrate up to 45mg/kg per hour. In serious ingestion, such as this one, the infusion may be slowed to 5mg/kg per hour as needed. You might consider treating with norepinephrine if hypotension is not responsive to fluids or is worsening. Deferoxamine is not a benign therapy. The patient should get no more than eight grams in a 24-hour period. But be aware that the use of deferoxamine for more than 24 hours can cause pulmonary toxicity. Note that the urine will turn a reddish pink rose color during treatment. Gastric lavage comes with the risk of GI perforation. Because most patients have had repeated vomiting. Iron is not absorbed by activated charcoal in the stomach, so it is not generally recommended.Whole bowel irrigation can be used by installing polyethylene glycol.

There are five stages of iron toxicity. The first stage is characterized by nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Blood loss can contribute to hypertension. Late phase one signs are hypotension, tachycardia, and The patient can develop anion gap acidosis, hypoglycemia, and margination leukocytosis. The second stage , refers to the period 6 to 24 hours after resolution of the GI. Symptoms. Ongoing cellular toxicity due to iron's effect at blocking oxidative phosphorylation continues. In the third stage. Profound toxicity develops from hypovolemia vasodilation, poor cardiac output with decreased tissue perfusion, resulting in a worsening metabolic acidosis. Patients can develop lethargy and coma, worsening GI bleed, acute kidney injury, and pulmonary edema. The fourth stage is characterized by hepatic failure, which can occur 2 to 3 days after ingestion. Stage five, which rarely manifests in patients, can include gastric scarring, pyloric stenosis, and small bowel stricture.

The patient is started on 15mg/kg per hour of deferoxamine and whole bowel irrigation. Via Ng tube at 1.5l per. The patient developed some worsening hypertension in the Ed, so it was continued on IV fluids and started on norepinephrine. She was admitted to the mice overnight, and Micu team was able to increase her rate to 45mg. Milligram per hour. Within 16 hours, the patient had resolution of her hypertension.norepinephrine was weaned off overnight, and her deferoxamine infusion was dropped the next day. She was after dispositioned to an inpatient psychiatric facility.
