The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 12/12/08
Murphy CM et al. - The case serves to increase awareness among emergency physicians, as well as occupational health personnel, that patients exposed to HNO3 may initially be asymptomatic. Patients should be evaluated and observed regardless of the severity or benign nature of symptoms, which occur immediately after exposure, as the most severe symptoms are often delayed in onset and rapidly progressive.
