Prospective Cohort Study of Intravenous Lipid Emulsion for Resuscitating Critically-ill Poisoned Patients

Completed
Conditions
Overdose
Registration Number
NCT03107689
Lead Sponsor
University of Southern California
Brief Summary

The purpose of this project is to evaluate the case characteristics of patients who receive intravenous lipid emulsion therapy. Previous literature to date has focused on animal studies or has been primarily limited to case reports or small case series. This prospectively collected data set will permit a much more detailed description of the use of lipid, its potential benefits, and potential harms.
