Methanol poisoning in the emergency department: methanol blood levels, prognosis, and sequelae outcomes
Methanol poisoning remains a severe clinical issue with high morbidity and mortality. Low pH, HCO<sub>3</sub>, and high anion/lactate levels are poor prognostic indicators. Early treatment improves outcomes, yet disabling visual sequelae are frequent. Developing rapid diagnostic kits for methanol and formic acid detection is essential for improving early diagnosis and management.
