简要总结
The goal of the current study was to evaluate whether SMOF lipid administration could be used as an adjuvant therapy to treat acute, moderate-to-severe clozapine poisoning.
详细描述
Antipsychotics, a class of drugs primarily used to treat schizophrenia and various mood disorders, including bipolar disorder, encompass a medication like clozapine. Clozapine stands out among antipsychotics due to its lower incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms, such as tardive dyskinesia, and its effectiveness in addressing negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
Recent data from the American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC) highlight sedatives/hypnotics/antipsychotics as among the top five frequently encountered xenobiotics in human exposure cases. This class of drugs has seen a notable uptick in incidence over the past 18 years. In Egypt, studies from institutions like Tanta University Poison Control Centre (TUPCC) and the National Poisoning Center in Cairo have identified acute clozapine poisoning as a common occurrence within cases of pharmaceutical drug poisonings affecting the central nervous system.
Clozapine toxicity manifests across multiple organ systems, with the central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular system (CVS) being most significantly impacted. Common symptoms include pronounced sedation, confusion, delirium, tachycardia, and mild hypotension.
Because there is no definitive antidote for clozapine poisoning, poison control centres recommend supportive therapy based on the patient's clinical condition and multiple-dose activated charcoal (MDAC) as a specific intervention for enhanced elimination. Nevertheless, the elimination of the drug from the body can be prolonged.
The scarcity of physiological antidotes for acute poisonings encourages toxicologists to supplement standard supportive treatment protocols with promising agents that tend to improve morbidity and mortality.

主要结局
Length of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Stay
时间窗: up to one month
This study evaluates the length of stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) among participants with acute clozapine poisoning. The length of the ICU stay is defined as the duration from the time of admission to the ICU to discharge from the ICU in days. Participants will be monitored throughout their hospitalisation period, and the length of their ICU stay will be recorded. The study aims to assess the impact of SMOF lipid administration on the duration of ICU stays, providing insights into its effectiveness in optimising resource utilisation and patient management. Understanding the factors influencing the length of the ICU stay may contribute to improved healthcare delivery and patient outcomes in acute clozapine poisoning.

Improvement in Conscious Levels Measured by Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)
时间窗: participants were monitored within 24 hours from admission to the hospital
This study evaluates the efficacy of SMOF lipid 20% in improving conscious levels among participants with acute clozapine poisoning within 24 hours. Conscious level improvement is assessed using the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), a widely recognised tool for neurological assessment. The GCS measures eye opening, verbal response, and motor response. The minimum value is 3 and the maximum value is 15, with higher scores indicating better conscious levels. The study aims to determine the extent of improvement in GCS scores following SMOF lipid administration, providing valuable insights into its effectiveness in enhancing neurological function.
Assessment of Intubation Requirement Using APACHE
时间窗: participants were assessed within 24 hours from admission to the hospital
This study investigates the requirement for intubation and mechanical ventilation among participants with acute clozapine poisoning using multiple clinical assessment tools, including the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE). The GCS evaluates the level of consciousness based on eye opening, verbal response, and motor response, with lower scores indicating a higher likelihood of intubation and mechanical ventilation. The APACHE score assesses the severity of illness and predicts the need for respiratory support, with higher scores indicating an increased risk of respiratory failure and the requirement for intervention.
