Abstract:
Acute poisoning in children is a significant global public health challenge，posing serious threats to the health and safety of infants and preschool-aged children. This review systematically summarizes recent advances in the field，including trends in epidemiology，causes，diagnostic and therapeutic techniques，and prevention strategies. Studies indicate that pediatric acute poisoning is significantly influenced by factors such as age，sex，geographic region，and type of toxic agent. Accidental ingestion of medications and household chemicals is more common in infants and young children，whereas intentional poisoning predominates among adolescents. With the emergence of novel toxic substances，pediatric poisoning has garnered increasing attention. Rapid diagnostic techniques，biomarker identification，and intelligent medical interventions have markedly improved diagnostic efficiency. Advances in antidote development，blood purification therapies，and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation have further contributed to improved clinical outcomes. This review underscores the importance of establishing a comprehensive management system encompassing prevention，early recognition，and effective treatment，aiming to enhance the efficiency and safety of pediatric poisoning care through systematic and integrated approaches.
