Abstract
The Oregon Poison Center (OPC) received 3 calls in one shift regarding toddlers who had altered mental status. A 3-year-old was described as having “abnormal shaking movements.” Another toddler received intravenous fluids for hypotension, and the last child was intubated for multiple apneic spells in the emergency department. All their symptoms resolved overnight, and they were discharged the next day. Charisse Pizarro-Osilla is a Certified Specialist in Poison Information and Lead Charge RN Coordinator, Oregon Health & Science University, Oregon Poison Center, Portland, OR.
