In this episode, we're nearing the end of our toxicology series with a look at the common household hazards our patients ingest, and how to care for those patients confidently.
Household hazards are something we see often - especially in my line of work, where things like caustic chemical ingestion or battery ingestion cause severe GI signs (or worse) needing intensive management. From fluid therapy, to nutrition, to analgesia, GI support and more, our role in caring for these patients cannot be overlooked.
Today, we'll take a closer look at toxicosis from things like household cleaners, corrosive agents, alcohols and essential oils. We'll discuss the impact they have on our patients, and the nursing support these patients need.
