Keracunan pada anak

Curigai keracunan pada anak sehat


yang mendadak sakit dan tidak
dapat dijelaskan penyebabnya.

WHO pocket book

Diagnosis
Carilah informasi:
- bahan penyebab keracunan
-jumlah racun yang terpajan
-waktu pajanan ke dalam tubuh
secara lengkap.
Periksalah tanda terbakar di dalam
atau sekitar mulut, atau apakah ada
stridor (kerusakan laring) yang
menunjukkan racun bersifat korosif.
WHO pocket book

Anak yang kemasukan bahan korosif atau


bahan hidrokarbon jangan dipulangkan
sebelum observasi selama 6 jam.
Bahan korosif luka bakar pada esofagus
yang mungkin tidak dapat segera
terlihat .
Bahan hidrokarbon jika terhirup edema
paru yang mungkin membutuhkan waktu
beberapa jam sebelum timbul gejala.
WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana racun yg


tertelan
Dekontaminasi Lambung
Dekontaminasi lambung
(menghilangkan racun dari lambung)
efektif bila dilakukan sebelum masa
pengosongan lambung terlewati.
tidak rutin dilakukan pada kasus
keracunan.

WHO pocket book

KI dekontaminasi lambung
~ Keracunan bahan korosif atau
senyawa hidrokarbon (minyak tanah,
dll) karena mempunyai risiko terjadi
gejala keracunan yang lebih serius .
~ Penurunan kesadaran (bila jalan
napas tidak terlindungi).

WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana racun yg


tertelan
Jika anak tertelan minyak tanah,
premium atau jika mulut dan
tenggorokan mengalami luka bakar
(misalnya karena bahan pemutih,
pembersih toilet atau asam kuat dari
aki), jangan rangsang muntah
tetapi beri minum air.

WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana racun yg


tertelan
Jika anak tertelan racun
lainnyaBerikan arang aktif
(activated charcoal) jika tersedia,
jangan rangsang muntah.
Jika arang aktif tidak tersedia,
rangsang muntah (hanya pada anak
sadar).

WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana keracunan


melalui kontak mata
Bilas mata selama 10-15 menit
dengan air bersih yang mengalir atau
garam normal, jaga curahannya tidak
masuk ke mata lainnya.
Jika ada kerusakan konjungtiva atau
kornea, anak harus diperiksa segera
oleh dokter mata.

WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana keracunan


melalui kontak kulit
Lepaskan semua pakaian dan barang
pribadi dan cuci menyeluruh seluruh
daerah yang terkontaminasi dengan
air hangat yang banyak.
Gunakan sabun dan air untuk bahan
berminyak.

WHO pocket book

Prinsip tatalaksana racun yg


terhirup
Keluarkan anak dari sumber pajanan
Berikan oksigen dan intubasi, jika
diperlukan

WHO pocket book

Keracunan
Akibat masuknya bahan kimia tertentu ke dalam
tubuh yang menyebabkan timbulnya kelainan pada
tubuh
Jenis jenis racun :
Padat : racun tikus, obat-obatan
Cair : bahan peluntur, cuka getah
Gas : karbon monoksida, ammonia, nitrogen dioksida

Sifat racun :

Korosif : merusak rongga mulut dan saluran


pencernaan (asid dan alkali)
Non korosif : obat-obatan, racun serangga, makanan
tercemar dan lain-lain

Cara racun masuk ke dalam tubuh : sentuhan kulit,


pernapasan, saluran makanan/mulut dan suntikan

Keracunan
Manifestasi klinik : pucat, muntah, sakit perut,
sesak napas, renjatan (shock), kesan terbakar di
mulut jika terminum racun membakar,
penurunan kesadaran
Penanganan :
Kenali racun
Jika pasien tidak sadarkan diri dan tidak bernafas
serta tiada denyutan nadi, lakukan CPR
Rawatan renjatan

Tanda keracunan :

Membakar : mulut hangus/berdarah, susah


bernapas, sakit, renjatan, bibir menjadi putih
Tidak membakar : muntah, sakit perut, muka pucat,
demem, pusing

Pertolongan Segera pada Keracunan


yang Mengancam Nyawa (1st survey)
Pastikan jalan napas terbuka
Dapat diberikan tambahan oksigen, 12 L/mnt(non
rebreathing mask)
Intubasi apabila reflkes menelan
Ukur kadar gas darah arteri dan pH darah
Berikan akses IV
Cek kadar glukosa darah, tes darah lengkap, serum
elektrolit, dan cek fungsi ginjal dan hepar
Tatalaksana koma
Apabila respon pasien lemah/curiga overdosis
narkotik (pinpoint pupil, nafas lemah) naloxone
2mg setiap 1-2 mnt s/d dosis max 10-20mg

Pertolongan Segera pada Keracunan


yang Mengancam Nyawa (1st survey)

Jika diduga keracunan alkohol dan malnutrisi


thiamine, 100mg IM/IV dengan kontrol glukosa
Pertahankan sirkulasi kontrol sirkulasi dan
tatalaksana syok dengan mengembalikan
volume iv dengan infus/crystalloid sollution
Tatalaksana kejang
Monitor EKG
Lakukan bilas lambung
Dengan NGT/OGT dengan arang aktif (1g/kg)
dicampur dengan solutio 70% sorbitol
Cari etiologi

2nd survey
Lakukan anamnesa cepat dan tepat
Mengumpulkan informasi selengkaplengkapnya untuk mengetahui penyebab
Dekontaminasi etiologi penyebab toksisitas
Racun yang terhirup segera pindahkan
penderita dari sumber racun menuju tempat
terbuka dan berikan oksigen
Mata yang terkontaminasi
Segera bilas mata dengan air bersih atau
dengan saline normal
Jika zat asing bersifat asam/basa dapat
menggunakan pH untuk menentukan terapi

2nd survey
Kulit yang terkontaminasi
Segera bilas kulit yang terkontaminasi
dengan air mengalir dan dilute soap solution
Pada kulit yang mengalami luka bakar dapat
menggunakan kalsium glukonat 0.5 ml dari
solutio 10%
Bilas lambung apabila diduga keracunan
akibat tertelan
Bilas lambung dilakukan apabila keracunan
termasuk serius dengan tanda kesadaran
menurun
Terapi bilas lambung dengan obat emetik
sudah tidak dilakukan

berbahaya ;ex: singkong,jamur,dsb
2. Timbul zat beracun krn proses
penyimpanan dan pemasakan
3. Tercemar oleh zat racun
1. Dg sengaja (zat warna,penyedap,dll)
2. MO (Stafilokokus,Salmonella,dll)

Makanan mengandung Toksin


EKSOTOKSIN

ENTEROTOKSIN

Toksin yang diproduksi &


dikeluarkan oleh mikroorganisme
yang masih hidup

Toksin yg spesifik bagi lapisan


lendir usus, seperti tahan
