Penny L et al. - Suspected poisoning in children results in about 40,000 annual Emergency Department attendances in England and Wales, with approximately half of these admitted for observation or treatment. The majority of poisonings are accidental, especially in the under-5 age group, although intentional overdoses and substance abuse are seen in older children. Rarely, children present with symptoms as a result of deliberate administration of compounds by adults.
