Organophosphate Insecticide Poisoning and its Management [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1974
The organophosphate insecticides have become widely used in agriculture and in home gardening. There has been an increase in accidental and intentional poisoning. Almost all these compounds are potent cholinesterase inhibitors, and signs of poisoning are attributable to the accumulation of acetylcholine.

Intensive care management of organophosphate insecticide poisoning [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Care, 2001
Organophosphate (OP) insecticides inhibit both cholinesterase and pseudo-cholinesterase activities. The inhibition of acetylcholinesterase causes accumulation of acetylcholine at synapses, and overstimulation of neurotransmission occurs as a result of this accumulation. The mortality rate of OP poisoning is high.

Respiratory failure in organophosphate insecticide poisoning

open access: yesSaudi Medical Journal, 2007
OBJECTIVE: Organophosphate compounds (OP) are usual insecticides and may poison human beings in a suicide attempt or accidental exposure. They inhibit activity of cholinesterase. Poisoning may be enough sever for intensive care support. In this paper, we study the prevalence and management of sever cases as well.

Oxime-functionalized anti-insecticide fabric reduces insecticide exposure through dermal and nasal routes, and prevents insecticide-induced neuromuscular-dysfunction and mortality

open access: yesNature Communications
Farmers from South Asian countries spray insecticides without protective gear, which leads to insecticide exposure through dermal and nasal routes. Acetylcholinesterase plays a crucial role in controlling neuromuscular function.
