A 51 years old farmer was in unconscious state when he was brought into our hospital. Four days before admission he handled “Nissol” and low toxic organophshor “Smithion” about 9 hours at his farm of apples.
Three days before he noted nausea, vomiting, headache, dizzines, sweatiness and light fever. In the midnight convulsion of limbs occured. Two days before symptoms became progressively worse.
Examinations on admission revealed depression of blood pressure (100-70), incipient rise of body temperature, low blood sugar level (45 mg/dl), concussion of eye-ball and Babinski's sign.
