Inactivate Acetylcholinesterase
Choline Acetic acid
Increase Acetylcholine level ACh is found in the central and peripheral nervous system,
neuromuscular junctions, and red blood cells (RBCs)

Increased Ach levels result in overstimulation of muscarinic and nicotinic receptors

Although most patients rapidly become symptomatic, the Onset and Severity of symptoms depend on
specific compound
amount
route of exposure and
rate of metabolic degradation

Signs and symptoms of organophosphate poisoning can be divided into 3 broad categories
1.muscarinic effects
2.nicotinic effects
3.CNS effects

![Page 11: Organophosphorus and organoochlorine poisoning clinical features](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052411/5562f6d0d8b42a213b8b54bf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Muscarinic effects by organ systems include the following:
Cardiovascular - Bradycardia, hypotension
Respiratory - Rhinorrhea, bronchorrhea, bronchospasm, cough, severe respiratory distress
Gastrointestinal - Hypersalivation, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fecal incontinence
Genitourinary - Incontinence
Ocular - Blurred vision, miosis
Glands - Increased lacrimation, diaphoresis

CNS effects

Organic chlorines are strongly lipid soluble and sequester in body tissues with high lipid content, such as the brain and liver
Consequently, blood levels tend to be much lower than fatty tissue levels
The lipophilic tendency of organochlorines accounts for prolonged systemic effects in overdose
ORGANOCHLORINES
![Page 15: Organophosphorus and organoochlorine poisoning clinical features](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052411/5562f6d0d8b42a213b8b54bf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Ingestion produces the following manifestations:
Nausea and vomiting
Confusion, tremor, myoclonus, coma, and seizures
Respiratory depression or failure
Unusual odor

Skin absorption or inhalation produces the following manifestations:
Ear, nose, and throat irritation
Blurred vision
Cough
Acute lung injury (ALI)
Dermatitis

Long-term occupational exposure to organochlorine pesticides may result in various nonspecific symptoms - headaches, nausea, fatigue, muscle twitching, and visual disturbances
In addition, chronic exposure to these agents may be associated with the development of blood dyscrasias, including aplastic anemia and leukemia
Other manifestations of chronic exposure are as follows:AnorexiaHepatotoxicityRenal toxicityCNS disturbances
![Page 19: Organophosphorus and organoochlorine poisoning clinical features](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052411/5562f6d0d8b42a213b8b54bf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Onset – abrupt
CNS excitation and depression are the primary effects observed in acute organochlorine toxicity - The patient may appear agitated, lethargic, intoxicated, or may even be unconscious
Initial euphoria with auditory or visual hallucinations and perceptual disturbances are common in the setting of acute toxicity.
Presentation
![Page 20: Organophosphorus and organoochlorine poisoning clinical features](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052411/5562f6d0d8b42a213b8b54bf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Laboratory estimation of blood cholinesterase and OP levels are not available in many developing countries
POP score can assess severity without laboratory investigation
Also patient co-ordination not required
The score is given when the patient first presents in the hospital

POP score 0-3 : Mild
POP score 4-7 : Moderate
POP score 8-11 : Severe
Based on results from the initial study, severe intoxications (score of 8 to 11) have a higher mortality rate
Require greater need for ventilatory support, and higher dose of atropine in the first 24 hours.
