  • A 31-year-old woman with a history of substance abuse is found unresponsive and pulseless in a department store near the electronics section. Bystander CPR was initiated and electrical defibrillation was successful in restoring spontaneous circulation.
  • A 31-year-old woman states she ingested a large amount of acetaminophen 1-2 hours prior to arrival to the ED. An initial serum APAP, ASA, and ETOH concentration are negative. A repeat APAP concentration obtained 8 hours later is 200 mcg/mL.
