pubmed:abstractText |
Deliberate self-harm with pesticides is a significant public health problem in rural Asia. We have previously shown an improved survival of patients with paraquat self-poisoning following the introduction of a new formulation with an increased emetic concentration, an alginate and a purgative in Sri Lanka. Further, formulation changes were introduced in October 2006; this study was designed to assess the impact of these changes on 6-week mortality following paraquat ingestion.
