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