    Abstract Abstract: There is a paucity of published reports of copper ammonium complex ingestion, as most published data describe overdoses of copper sulfate formulations. We report a case of suicide by ingestion of copper ammonium complex-containing fungicide with an elevated postmortem copper level. A 77-year-old woman was found dead at home by her relative after ingesting a fungicide containing 8% copper ammonium complex solution. Turquoise emesis was found at the scene, and on autopsy, turquoise material was found throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Postmortem central blood copper level was 500 μg/dL. Cause of death was determined to be acute copper toxicity.

    Abstract Background: Identification of portal venous gas on radiographic imaging is well documented after the ingestion of hydrogen peroxide, as is its resolution after hyperbaric therapy. Although hyperbaric therapy may resolve the gastrointestinal symptoms associated with the presence of portal venous gas, the principle rationale for performing hyperbaric therapy is to prevent subsequent central nervous system oxygen embolization.
    Case report: We describe a patient with portal venous gas identified by computed tomography after the ingestion of 3% hydrogen peroxide, managed without hyperbaric therapy, who subsequently developed portal venous thrombosis. We are not aware of this complication being previously described from hydrogen peroxide ingestion. The case is complicated by the coexistence of a self-inflicted stab wound, leading to exploratory laparotomy in a patient predisposed to arterial vascular occlusion. Why Should an EmergencyPhysicianBeAware of This? Emergency physicians will encounter patients after the ingestion of hydrogen peroxide who, despite not having symptoms of central nervous system emboli, have portal venous gas identified on radiographic imaging. Being aware that the principle rationale for prophylactic utilization of hyperbaric therapy is to prevent subsequent central nervous system emboli, and that in at least one case, delayed-onset portal venous thrombosis has occurred without hyperbaric therapy may help contribute to clinical decision-making.

    Abstract Introduction: Plant identification applications for use on smartphones have been increasing in availability, accuracy, and utilization. We aimed to perform an introductory study to determine if a plant identification application (ID app) used on a smartphone could identify toxic plants, and to compare apps to determine which is most reliable.
    Methods: We compared three popular iPhone plant ID apps, PictureThis (PT), PlantSnap (PS), and Pl@ntNet (PN), used to identify 17 commonly encountered toxic plants. Apps were used to photograph the entire plant, leaves, and flowers of ≥ 10 different plants for each species. Two toxicologists performed plant identification with confirmation of identification performed by a botanist, and inter-researcher agreement was confirmed. For each plant species, scores for accuracy of app identification of leaves, flowers, and whole plant were combined to create an overall composite score used to compare accuracy of each app (95% C.I.).
    Results: PictureThis had the best performance with 10/17 (59% [36 to 78]) plant species identified 100% correctly, as opposed to 8/17 (47% [26 to 69]) for Pl@ntNet and 1/17 for PlantSnap (5.8% [1.1 to 27]).
    Conclusion: A plant identification app may be a useful tool to assist healthcare providers and the public in identifying toxic plants.

    Abstract Introduction: Studies of acute hypersensitivity reactions in pediatric populations receiving Crotalidae Polyvalent Immune Fab (CPIF) are complicated by small size, wide age ranges, and diverse definitions of such reactions.
    Methods: This is a retrospective chart review of patients aged 13 years or younger treated with CPIF for Crotalid envenomation from November 2006 to 2016. The primary outcome was the presence of an acute hypersensitivity reaction to CPIF and was defined as the development of any of the following symptoms within 3 hours of initiation of CPIF infusion: urticaria, wheezing or respiratory distress, angioedema, hypotension, nausea, and/or vomiting. Demographics, CPIF dose to control and total dose, bite location, level of care, and length of stay were also recorded.
    Results: Thirty-four patients were ultimately treated with CPIF. Ages ranged from 10 months to 13 years. Twenty-one patients (60%) were male, 24 (70.6%) were admitted to the ICU, and the median length of stay was 2 days with a range of 1-11 days. Zero patients developed an acute hypersensitivity reaction to CPIF.
    Conclusion: Acute hypersensitivity reactions to CPIF did not occur in this cohort. Such reactions are rare with the use of CPIF in pediatric patients.

    Abstract Fluvoxamine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor that has been considered relatively safe in overdose. At therapeutic and supratherapeutic concentrations, fluvoxamine affects cardiac conduction, prolongs QTc interval, causes hypotension, obtundation, and can increase propensity for seizures. A man in his 60s was found dead at his home with a postmortem fluvoxamine peripheral blood concentration of 4.9 mg/L, and a liver concentration of 440 mg/kg. His cause of death was determined to be acute fluvoxamine toxicity.

    Abstract Thoracic aorta thrombi are a rare condition typically presenting as a source for distal embolization in elderly patients with atherosclerotic risk factors. However, young patients with a variety of presentations resulting from such thrombi have rarely been reported. We describe a case of a young patient with refractory hypertensive emergency caused by a large thoracic aorta thrombus. Investigation was guided by abnormal physical exam findings.

    Abstract A 40-year-old commercial fisherman presented with a blistering second degree burn to the right arm after handling a dredged and undetonated World War I-era sulfur mustard artillery shell. He sustained isolated second degree cutaneous injury requiring wound care and skin grafting. Sulfur mustard, or dichlorethylsulphide, is a vesicant chemical warfare agent that causes significant cutaneous chemical burn and is managed with burn wound care. Long-term effects include cosmetic disfigurement and increased risk of developing cancer. Sulfur mustard exposure is a rare but devastating injury when discarded artillery shells are encountered in coastal waters.
