Introduction Intentional pesticide poisoning is a major clinical and public health problem in agricultural communities low middle income countries like Nepal. Bans of highly hazardous pesticides (HHP) reduce the number suicides. We aimed to identify these by reviewing data from hospitals across country forensic toxicology laboratories.Methods retrospectively reviewed medical records 10 for poisoned patients two laboratories Nepal April 2017 February 2020. The poison was identified history,...
Abstract Background: Hypertension is a leading risk factor to Nepal's rising burden of cardiovascular diseases, yet many affected individuals remain undiagnosed, untreated, and uncontrolled. Identifying gaps in care variations across socio-demographics provinces can help optimize interventions prevent control hypertension. Objectives: We aimed quantify the prevalence hypertension awareness, treatment, control, as well their determinants, using latest nationally representative data from 2022...
Tribhuvan University Teaching Tertiary Care Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal, May-October 2019.1) To describe the bacteriological profile, 2) to identify antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pattern, and 3) find demographic characteristics associated with presence of bacterial growth multidrug (MDR) in adult urine samples undergoing culture drug susceptibility testing.This was a hospital-based, cross-sectional study using routine laboratory records.Among 11,776 samples, 16% (1,865/11,776) were...
Abstract Background Nepal recorded 5754 suicides in 2018–19 - a high number for relatively small country. Over 24% of these were by poisoning, most ingestion highly concentrated agricultural pesticides. has actively regulated pesticides to reduce their health impacts since 2001. We aimed analyse Nepal’s history pesticide regulation, responsible poisonings, and relate them national suicide rates. Methods Information on regulation was collected from the Plant Quarantine Pesticide Management...
Background: Drug Promotional Literatures are usually relied upon for drug promotion, however studies have shown them to contain several pitfalls. World Health Organization has time and often revised the guideline address issue Ethical Criteria Medicinal Promotion was established. Based on this guideline, regional as well national guidelines been formulated. Though laws regulate promotion is existent, problems with promotional literatures in Nepal also. This study carried out analyse...
Abstract In recent times, the importance of nanostructure metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) as a gas sensing material is rising tremendously. Among various semiconductors ZnO has potential to be used sensor for several toxic gases. this work, we investigated influence Fe doping into detect concentrations ethanol vapour. Pristine and doped (Fe-ZnO) films were deposited on glass substrates using spin coating technique wherein concentration can easily controlled. The crystallite size surface...
Toxicological emergencies present a significant health challenge in Nepal. Despite the high burden, country has inadequate formal toxicology training, medical expertise, and adequate poison control infrastructure. In recognition of this need, Nepal Poison Information Center (PIC) was established as collaborative effort involving local international partners. Through comprehensive partnership framework, PIC provides 24 hours day, 7 days week expert guidance to care workers, conducts...
Introduction: Drug interactions are one of the major contributors to increase hospital stay, inflate health care expenses, and cause serious adverse events end-organ damage. Patients admitted intensive unit already critically sick at greater risk these outcomes. The study aimed find out prevalence potential drug-drug in Intensive Care Units a tertiary centre. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional was conducted among patients Unit from April-June 2019. Ethical approval taken Institutional...

 Introduction: Globally, Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) has been listed as the sixth leading causes of death. Recognition ADR and establishment relationship drug with symptom is first step to management problem. In this study, Naranjo algorithm used which one most accepted tools for assessment causality suspected drug.
 Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was done included 35 reported cases ADRs in Information Unit (DIU) tertiary care teaching institute Nepal from Dec 2015 Oct...
Paraquat, a highly toxic herbicide, accounts for substantial number of poisoning-related fatalities, primarily prevalent in agricultural regions. The ingestion gives rise to severe complications affecting various organs, including the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys and liver. This report details case an 18-year-old male who had been using cannabis year inadvertently ingested paraquat. He presented at emergency room exhibiting symptoms vomiting characterized by hematemesis...
<h3>Background</h3> Suicide is one of the most common types injuries in Nepal with recorded 6993 suicides 2022–23, intentional pesticide poisoning being second method. Banning highly hazardous pesticides (HHPs) a cost-effective intervention to reduce mortality from suicide. Eight mostly HHPs were banned 2019 product reformulated. <h3>Objective</h3> This talk will provide highlights University Edinburgh study on use suicides. HOPE GRID (2017–2019) carried out select hospitals and toxicology...
