About:
Pediatric patients comprise a large percentage of toxic exposure calls to US Poison Centers. Most of the exposures involve children under the age of 6 years of age. Although many of these are minor ingestions, there are at least seven different classes of substances that can lead to severe toxicity or even death with even small ingestions in children.
