Abstract
Anticholinesterase pesticides are widely used in agriculture and domestic settings throughout the world. It is responsible for great morbidity and mortality especially in developing countries as Egypt. The widespread use and easy accessibility of these compounds result in millions of cases and hundreds of thousands deaths occurring each year. Unfortunately, mortality rate of OP poisoning is still high especially in resource-poor settings. The problem is compounded by a lack of research evidence regarding diagnosis, grading of severity or management of OPC poisoning, despite the large number of OPC poisoning cases occurring worldwide every year. Rapid and effective stabilization and treatment of the poisoned patient has a great role in reducing the number of deaths, improving the short term prognosis of surviving patient and reduceing the number and severity of long term sequelae.
