Dr. Wang Mingxuan
Acute poisoning requires intravenous fluid therapy and electrocardiogram (ECG) examination. If patients develop typical symptoms of poisoning such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, headache, or dizziness, they should seek medical attention promptly for intravenous treatment. Additionally, changes in vital signs including heart rate, blood pressure, and pulse should be closely monitored. In some cases, symptoms such as palpitations or chest tightness may occur, necessitating an ECG examination.
