Bowel Cleansing by Polyethylene Glycol preparation in Acute Pediatric Poisoning: Report Of Two Cases
The Internet Journal of Gastroenterology, 07/02/09
Amini-Ranjbar S et al. - Whole bowel irrigation is a recently hopeful advancement in detoxification of some special poisons. Polyethylene glycol (PEG), a non-absorbable iso-osmotic laxative preparation, is the substance that can be used with the least rate of complications and causes complete evacuation of gastrointestinal tract in 4-6 hours. PEG preparation has been tolerated well in adults, children and pregnant women, but it seems that its use is mostly disregarded in the management of pediatric poisoning due to poor information about its benefits.
