Study on the effect using hemoperfusion to treat tetramine poisoned patients / 中华劳动卫生职业病杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effect of hemoperfusion on tetramine poisoned patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Three tretramine poisoned cases treated with hemoperfusion were selected. The samples during and after hemoperfusion were collected and analyzed by gas chromatography.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Tetramine concentration at the inlet of the artificial kidney kept the same level during hemoperfusion. After hemoperfusion, the tetramine concentration in patient plasma changed little in 72 hours. 1.03-1.55 mg of tetramine was adsorbed by the instrument of hemoperfusion after two hours' hemoperfusion.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Although hemoperfusion was not so effective to reduce blood tetramine concentration in patients, it could clear about 1 mg tetramine for one time.</p>
