N2  - 1 Although accidental poisoning of children with drugs and chemicals is a common precipitant for admission to hospital, the possibility of deliberate poisoning as an extension of 'the battered baby syndrome' is rarely considered. 2 Most children admitted following accidental ingestions require little active management other than induction of emesis. Report of relatively large overdoses in infancy are rare, and protocols for management of such cases largely untried. This case report demonstrates the successful application of a current treatment regimen to an infant who had ingested a substantial quantity of paracetamol.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
