Hyperbaric oxygen for gas emboli following hydrogen peroxide ingestion
Discussion” section of the paper:
As little as “one sip” (1-5 ml) of hydrogen peroxide can cause problems.
Imaging and endoscopy are appropriate for patients who have ingested solutions > 10% and those who have “significant symptoms.” including persistent abdominal pain, neurologic deficits, or hematemesis.
HBO should be considered in patients with gas emboli after ingestion of hydrogen peroxide.
The paper is possibly most valuable for its 2 tables, that summarize reported cases of hydrogen peroxide ingestions treated with and without HBO. (Source: The Poison Review)

Toxic Spill in West Virginia: Tox on the Web
Chemical Leak in West Virginia: On her Wired Science blog Elemental, @deborahblum tries to track down information about 4-methylcyclohexane methanol (MCHM), a “detergent” (foaming agent) used for washing coal that leaked from a storage tank into West Virginia’s Elk River on Thursday. Not much is known about the toxicology and risk of MCHM, except that it is an irritant. In the meantime, hundreds of thousands of West Virginia residents have been advised to stop drinking and bathing in tap water. Blum makes the important point that, although at this point MCHM does not seem to be overwhelmingly toxic, not...

Carbon Monoxide Toxicity: Over at Academic Life in Emergency Medicine, there is an excellent review of carbon monoxide toxicity by Dr. Dan Repplinger, with expert peer review by Dr. David Juurlink. The review focuses on the indications for hyberbaric oxygen therapy. Dr. Juurlink summation reflects my opinion on the matter exactly: ” . . .there are no absolute indications for HBO on patients with CO poisoning. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.” Another must-read.
