◉ Ethylene Glycol Poisoning Stage 2. Answer: Occurs 12 - 36 hours
post-ingestion. Characterized by pulmonary edema, bilateral
crackles, tachypnea, cyanosis, and cardiac dysfunction (e.g.,
ventricular tachycardia).
◉ Ethylene Glycol Poisoning Stage 3. Answer: Occurs 24 - 72 hours
post-ingestion. Involves acute kidney injury, flank pain, and
oliguria/anuria.
◉ Organophosphate Poisoning Symptoms. Answer: Mimics
cholinergic overdose, often remembered by the mnemonic SLUDGE
(Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Defecation, Gastrointestinal
upset, Emesis) and Killer B's (Bradycardia, Bronchospasm,
Bronchorrhea).
◉ Key Presentation of Organophosphate Poisoning. Answer:
Salivation and incontinence of urine and liquid stool.
◉ Diphenhydramine Overdose Effects. Answer: Diphenhydramine
(an antihistamine) has significant anticholinergic effects.
, ◉ Symptoms of Anticholinergic Toxicity. Answer: Dry mouth, dilated
pupils (mydriasis), blurred vision, urinary retention, constipation,
altered mental status, tachycardia, hypertension, and warm, dry
skin.
◉ Lorazepam Overdose Presentation. Answer: CNS depression,
respiratory depression, hypotension, bradycardia.
◉ Primary Concern in Lorazepam Overdose. Answer: Airway and
breathing support.
◉ Hyperkalemia on ECG Key Sign. Answer: Peaked T waves are the
earliest and most classic ECG sign of hyperkalemia.
◉ Most Helpful History Component for MI Risk. Answer: Familial
heart disease history is a crucial indicator for predisposition to MI.
◉ Inferior Wall MI Leads. Answer: Leads II, III, aVF represent the
inferior wall of the heart.
◉ Angina Pectoris Characteristics. Answer: Chest discomfort
described as 'pressure-like,' radiating to the jaw and left arm, that
