Deibert McLachlan, reporter Page 4 Thurs., March 14, 1963 HETFNEK THE W GAZETTE-TIMES HEPPNER, OREGON 478 Accidental Poisonings Told In State in 1962 There's virtually no limit to the poisonous substances which people accidently swallow each year, especially children under three years of age, Carl G. Ash ley, M. D., director of the mater nal and child health section, Oregon State Board of Health, reported today. This fact is proven by the Ore gon Poison Control Registry which received 478 reports of accidental poisonings occuring to Oregonians during the past year. Their annual report listed 271 cases of poisoning from acciden tal ingestion of internal medi cines, 109, or 40, which were caused by overdoses of aspirin. Other sources of poisoning in cluded: external medicine, 32 cases; household preparations, 55- petroleum products, 12; cos metics, 9; pesticides, 42; poison ous plants, 11; painting supplies, 8; veterinary supplies, 1; and other or unspecified, 2. The greatest single cause of accidental poisoning after aspir in was barbiturate sedatives, 37 cases; insecticides, 27; tranquil izing drugs, 19; analgesics other than aspirin, 16; non-barbiturate sedatives, 13; antiseptics, 13; lotions and medicated ointments, 11; and bleach and detergents, 11 cases. Numerous other substances were swallowed by Oregonians, such as, deodorants, lighter fluid, shoe polish, toadstools, and paint. Fifteen, or 3.17c, of the cases reported to the registry re sulted in death. In addition, an undetermined number suffered permanent damage as a result of their accidental poisoning, Dr. Ashlev stated, The Oregon Poison Control Registry was established in 1958 as an around-the-ciocK clearing house of information on poisons for physicians and hospitals. The sponsoring agencies are the State Medical Society, State Board of Health, and the Univer sity of Oregon Medical School. The registry clearinghouse also conducts education programs on prevention and treatment of poi sonintr cases. The majority of cases, 329, or 797r. were in children under the aee of five. Two year olds ac counted for more cases than any other ace group, with 178 report ed poisonings, Dr. Ashley indi cated. National Poison Proven t i o n Week will be observed March 17-23. It is a highlight of th Oregon Poison Control Registry and the State Board of Health e year-around crusade to educate naients to practice and teacti safety habits in an effort to re duce accidental poisonings in Oregon. Make every week poison prevention week, Dr. Ashley urged.
