Objective: Although it has different mortality and morbidity rates all over the world, childhood poisoninghas an important place among childhood health problems. Considering increase in health expenditures,duration of hospital stay and loss of labor caused by poisonings, the problem has not only medical but alsosocial aspects. Method: In addition to demographic data of 1043 pediatric patients admitted to our hospital with comp laints of poisoning, pre-admission intervention, place of poisoning, admission time, agent and time ofpoisoning, time elapsed after poisoning, admission findings, hospitalization period, diagnostic tests appli ed and treatment modalities were evaluated retrospectively with their prognosis. Results: Of the 1043 cases, 54.5% were female. Female ratio increased to 82% in 139 cases of suicide.When the causes of poisoning were examined, they occurred due to use of pharmaceutical agents drugs(47.2%), industrial (41.5%), and agricultural products (5.4%), CO (2.7%), foods (2.6%), unknown factors(0.5%), and animal bites (0.2%). Gastric-lavage, activated-charcoal, intravenous-fluid regimen (33%) werethe most common treatment modalities. Two of the three mortal cases were due to colchicine, and thethird one was caused by CO poisoning. Conclusion: Although the development in the diagnosis and treatment of poisonings is pleasing, the mostaccurate approach to this issue will be to increase the protective measures. In addition to these standardmeasures, each country should set priorities in line with its own epidemiological study. Regarding thehigher mortality rate (22%) we may suggest that clinicians should be more careful and aggressive in thediagnosis and treatment of colchicine intoxications, which can be associated with mortality even at lowdoses
