Good evening,
00:01
Hopkins, Beatrix, and GBMC.
00:03
I'm going to be, I have a two-year-old here,
00:07
had an accidental ingestion of some medicines that were not related to him.
00:11
He took two times 20-milligram XR Dynavel, and he took an unknown amount of trazodones,
00:19
unconfirmed on the trazodones.
00:21
They said it was anywhere between 5 to 10 in there.
00:25
They're not sure how many he could have gotten hold of or if he even took any of those.
00:30
Ingestion time was probably right about an hour ago, give or take a few minutes.
00:34
Currently, patient is asymptomatic, unremarkable.
00:37
Poison control has already been consulted.
00:40
They suggested could attempt charcoal, but however they were, they didn't seem overly concerned, seemed more of supportive care at this point.
00:48
Like he said, he is age-appropriate to have a parent here with us.
00:50
Vitals are all unremarkable.
00:53
Got a pressure of 108 over 64, his heart rate is right around 110, that's our 99%.

Like I said, he is fully interactive, no vomiting, no nausea, no sedative properties noted at this point.
01:07
Healthy child, no history, no mental allergies.
01:11
This time, Hopkins, I'm inquiring if you have any orders for this child, if you'd like you to attempt,
01:17
activated charcoal for this child,
01:19
or if you want me to discontinue.
01:21
At this time, I was planning on transporting over to GBMC if there's no issues or concerns with that as well.
01:28
Like I said, he is asymptomatic at this point, and Poison Control didn't have anything further as far as long-term care.
01:35
Do you copy, do you have any orders?
01:41
I would just go ahead and do whatever a project called so that they said trial, I'll actually charcoal, then that's by us.
01:49
Okay, we'll go ahead and we'll give the charcoal shot, we'll see how that goes.
01:54
If you don't know anything further, GBMC, do you have any questions?
01:59
The case of the medications that we ingested.
02:04
Dynavel D-D-Y-A-N-A-V-E-L-R, 20 milligrams, took two of those.
02:10
And then the other one would possibly be trazodone, however that's unconfirmed.
02:15
But the Dynavels were pretty short about.
