title: [Psychopathology of acute organophosphorus compound poisonings].
abstract: Under examination there were 65 patients with poisoning with organophosphorus insecticides (thiophos, carbophos, chlorophos). The leading psychotic symptoms in these intoxications were psychovegetative, psychovestibular and hyperkinetic ones, which transformed into each other, as the poisoning progressed. The therapeutic applications of atropine led to development of a drug psychosis resembling the oneiroid syndrome. While making the diagnostic differentiation between the latter and the psychosis due to the poisoning with organophosphorus insecticides one should take into account the clinical and laboratory findings.
