Evaluation of Treatment Protocols and Their Efficacy in Managing Lambda-cyhalothrin Poisoning at Rajshahi Medical College ICU

This study presents a comprehensive evaluation of the efficacy of treatment protocol in managing Lambda-cyhalothrin (OPC) poisoning cases at ICU of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. The research focused on the case of Fahmida, a 25-year-old female patient who was admitted with severe Lambda-cyhalothrin poisoning, experiencing life-threatening respiratory distress. The study examined the interventions and treatments administered, including airway management, gastric lavage, activated charcoal, Atropine, Pralidoxime, fluid resuscitation, continuous monitoring, and supportive cares. Fahmida's clinical progress was analyzed, emphasizing the critical role of timely and appropriate treatment. The outcome of this case demonstrates the effectiveness of the treatment protocol in ICU. Fahmida's condition improved significantly, leading to her successful weaning off the ventilator. She was discharged in stable condition. Furthermore, a calculation of the percentage improvement in Fahmida's condition has been provided, indicating the extent of recovery achieved during her ICU stay. This study also discussed its findings in the context of similar studies, highlighting the percentage of improvement in other cases with Lambda-cyhalothrin (OPC) poisoning who underwent comparable treatment protocols. Comparision of these percentages allow for a broader assessment of the treatment's efficacy and its potential implications for improving patient outcomes in pesticide poisoning cases.
