[Elimination of poisons].
Therapeutic methods for treating poisoned men are based on the principles of intensive care therapy. The elimination of toxins depends on the circulatory circumstances; an enhancement of poison elimination can be achieved in providing a normal circulation. In the treatment of most cases of poisoning gastric and gut lavage will be sufficient. An extracorporeal toxin elimination with hemodialysis or hemoperfusion will be reserved for special cases, because of increased technical and personal expense and a higher complication rate, compared to other methods of treatment in poisoning. Forced diuresis is a simple method, but the efficacy is reduced to a small number of substances. Also reduced to certain toxins is the method of elimination with hyperventilation.
