Abstract:
Acute poisoning is a major public health threat worldwide, including Thailand, a country in Southeast Asia with over 67 million inhabitants. The incidence and characteristics of poisoning in Thailand vary greatly depending on the reporting body. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive description of the state of poisoning in Thailand. It identifies common trends and differences in poisoning by reporting centers and regional studies. Almost half of the cases and three-fourths of the deaths involved pesticide poisonings associated with agricultural occupations. However, increasing

Introduction. In the present article correlations of internal consistency of family and personal, social and environmental, anamnestic and physical data in persons with acute poisonings were determined for the first time. Also the pedagogical and psychological methods of prevention of the above nosology, directed to the prevention of acute poisonings, were reviewed. A corrective program of repeated poisonings prevention, carried out in the project “School of Health” in the form of conversations, lectures, autogenic training, reduced the number of repeated poisonings.

Acute intoxications represent a major problem in pediatric practice because of their severity and the high frequency of illnesses.
