Experimental drug intoxication: treatment with charcoal haemoperfusion.

Dogs were given large doses of barbiturates, glutethimide, ethanol, methaqualone, ethchlorvynol, meprobamate, chloral hydrate, paracetamol and aspirin. These were treated by haemoperfusion using a column packed with charcoal coated with an acrylic hydrogel. Clearances for most drugs were significantly higher than those reported for haemodialysis. Minimal clearances of common biochemical entities were observed and although leucocyte and platelet counts were diminished, no deleterious effects attributable to this were encountered. Careful histological examination of tissues derived from perfused dogs revealed no evidence of charcoal emboli.

Use of charcoal haemoperfusion in the management of severely poisoned patients.

The clinical use of uncoated charcoal haemoperfusion systems, despite their efficacy, has hitherto been prevented by the occurrence of a number of adverse effects including charcoal embolism and marked thrombocytopenia. Charcoal coated with a synthetic hydrogel overcomes many of the disadvantages associated with the use of uncoated material in that there is a much reduced thrombocytopenia and no evidence of charcoal embolism. Six patients, severely poisoned as a result of overdoses of either a barbiturate or glutethimide, were haemoperfused using such a system. Four made complete recoveries, and the two patients who died had both suffered cardiorespiratory arrests before perfusion. In contrast to haemodialysis charcoal haemoperfusion is simple to initiate, less expensive in terms of manpower and equipment, and gives superior clearance data for all barbiturates and glutethimide. We believe that this technique may have a significant role to play in the management of the severely poisoned patient.

Organochlorine pesticide residues in human fat in the United Kingdom 1969-71.

During the period 1969-71 samples of human body fat were taken during routine necropsies on 201 subjects over 5 years old and 20 stillborn babies and infants under 5 years old, and analysis was carried out for organochlorine pesticide residues. By comparing the results from this period with those from similar studies undertaken in 1963-4 and 1965-7, it is clear that a downward trend continues.
