Abstract:
Objective To analyze the forensic clinical appraisal of personal injury caused by dexamethasone poisoning and provide reference for similar cases.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 16 individuals exposed to dexamethasone-adulterated drinking water in a poisoning case.The age,gender,adverse reactions,and clinical manifestations of the appraised individuals were examined based on interview records and clinical medical histories.Results Among the 16 appraised individuals,7 were male and 9 were female,aged 29-50 years.The primary clinical manifestations involved the nervous,respiratory,digestive,and muscular systems,as well as the skin and other organs.After discontinuation of the"hormone water,"5 individuals experienced adverse clinical outcomes.Conclusion Forensic clinical examination in dexamethasone poisoning cases should be performed after the completion of clinical treatment,with particular attention to damage in specific organs.The appraisal must comprehensively consider poisoning duration,dosage,treatment measures,detoxification process,and individual variability.Such cases warrant close attention in judicial practice,and relevant authorities should improve appraisal standards to better meet forensic needs.
