Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine whether the use of GIK infusion as an adjunct to standard supportive care reduces in-hospital mortality in patients presenting with acute Aluminum phosphide poisoning, compared to Standard treated without GIK (historical) within 48 hoursTimepoint: To determine whether the use of GIK infusion as an adjunct to standard supportive care reduces in-hospital 48 hour mortality in patients presenting with acute Aluminum phosphide poisoning, compared to Standard treated without GIK (historical). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. To assess the prognostic value of Glu-K ratio at presentation in predicting in-hospital mortality and poor outcomes in ALP poisoning.Timepoint: 1st hour;To compare the predictive accuracy of Glu-K ratio with other routinely used prognostic markers, such as serum lactate, and with validated severity scores, including PSS, APACHE II, PGI, and REMS.Timepoint: Glu-K ratio within 1 huour;To evaluate the effect of GIK therapy on hemodynamic parameters, vasopressor requirements, acid-base status, and length of hospital/ICU stayTimepoint: ABG every 6 hours and throughout the length of ICU stay;4. To analyze the timing and duration of GIK administration in relation to survival outcomes.Timepoint: within 4 hours of ingestion or not;To document and evaluate any adverse events associated with GIK therapy, including hypoglycemia and electrolyte disturbances.Timepoint: RBS every hourly and ABG every 6th hourly | — |
