How is the Severity of Toxic Exposure Assessed?

Assessing the severity of toxic exposure requires a thorough evaluation of the patient's symptoms, vital signs, and potential toxic agents involved. Medical professionals use tools such as the toxidrome recognition to identify specific syndromes associated with certain classes of toxins. Laboratory tests, including blood and urine analyses, can provide additional information on the extent of exposure and organ involvement.
