Phosgene poisoning may cause respiratory and cardiovascular failure which results in low plasma volume, increased hemoglobin concentration, low blood pressure, and an accumulation of fluid in the lungs. There is no antidote for phosgene, and treatment consists of support of respiratory and cardiovascular functions. [Pg.236]

Treatments that have been proposed to prevent pulmonary edema in exposed-asymptomatic persons include steroids, ibuprofen, V-acetyl cysteine, and positive pressure airway ventilation. However, there is no known antidote for phosgene poisoning, and although animal studies suggest that these treatments may be effective, no clinical data are available to verify efficacy in humans (Borak and Diller,... [Pg.324]
