[Analysis and diagnostic exploration of a dimethylacetamide poisoning incident in a small and micro enterprise].
In this paper, the causes of dimethylacetamide poisoning in a small and micro enterprise were analyzed through on-site occupational health investigation, clinical data summary of poisoned patients and occupational hazard factors detection results. The incident was a group poisoning incident caused by exposure to dimethylacetamide, resulting in different degrees of toxic liver disease in 6 workers. Although the concentration of dimethylacetamide in the air in the workplace was excessive, percutaneous absorption may be the main cause of poisoning. The characteristics of percutaneous absorption of dimethylacetamide need to be paid great attention to, which can be used for reference to prevent similar incidents in the future.
