Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
We are presenting you with a follow-up of our previously published study pertaining to acute corrosive intoxications, based on data collected over a ten-year period. Despite the efforts to decrease the incidence of acute corrosive intoxications through educational activities, media platforms and information brochures about the health risks from the ingestion and abuse of corrosive agents, these poisonings are still a serious medical and social issue with high morbidity and mortality rates. Our study showed that the occurrence of these poisonings was higher in populations of lower socioeconomic and health status, among which there were higher rates of suicide attempts, greater risk for long-term invalidity and even death.
