Organic phosphorus poisoning
Inhalation, skin absorption or ingestion of insecticides containing organic phosphorus may result in abrupt onset of serious illness several hours following exposure. The organic phosphorus radical has the specific effect of inactivating cholinesterase in the body. When cholinesterase is reduced below a critical level continuous stimulation of the entire parasympathetic nervous system results. The major symptoms are diarrhea, vomiting, pulmonary edema, respiratory difficulty and tonic convulsions. Myosis is frequently present and when found is almost pathognomonic, especially if associated with other symptoms. Treatment consists essentially of heroic doses of atropine or a similar parasympathetic inhibitor, plus supportive therapy(16).
