title: Significance of heart rate response in shock due to aluminium phosphide poisoning.
abstract: Mixed heart rate response has been observed in shock due to aluminium phosphide poisoning. Bradycardia observed in 9 of 30 cases studied indicated transient vagotonia and it reversed with atropine. Both tachycardiac bradycardiac responses were associated with significant increase in the mortality.
