Characterization of acute intoxications in Sancti Spíritus pediatric age, 2014-2018 by Yarelyn Prieto Amude, Karen Remedios Rodríguez, Yanicel Sorí León, Yaumara María León Águila, Raylen Escobar Román

“…Medications (66.7%) were the causal agents most involved in both types of poisoning, the digestive tract was the most frequently observed, representing 95.6%. 80.6% of the cases occurred at home and presented a short hospital stay, with three days or less in most of them.<br /><strong>Conclusions:</strong> exogenous intoxications in children are a cause of morbidity in the Sancti Spíritus province, so it is vitally important to follow up on the results obtained in this research, such as the rate of intoxication by psychotropic drugs.…”
