Abstract
For the treatment of phosgene poisoning, glucocorticoids and positive pressure ventilation can be recommended as well as supporting measures such as physical rest, antitussives, buffers, sedatives, antibiotics, antispasmodics and possibly diurectics. Roentgenological evaluation of the lungs is advisable. A therapeutic strategy is presented which is based on the phosgene exposure intensity.Keywords
