Tracheal Intubation and Mechanical Ventilation in Adults with Severe Salicylate Poisoning.
Salicylate poisoning may lead to critical acid-base disturbances. Tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation for patients with severe salicylism has been strongly discouraged. ⋯ In our single-center experience managing adults with severe salicylate poisoning, tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation were not associated with substantial perturbation of serum pH or severe complications. These findings challenge the current paradigm that these interventions should be avoided in salicylate-poisoned patients.
