A prospective evaluation of poison exposure calls, in reference to persons .gtoreq. 60 yr of age, was performed at the Maryland Poison Center [USA] during a 6-mo. period in 1981. Each call was examined with respect to location of exposure, caller, circumstance, treatment location and final outcome. The study group consisted of 237 persons, of whom 66% were women. The majority of callers were not medical personnel, and the most common location for exposure was the home. Most exposures occurred by the oral route and were the result of an accident (83.1%) as opposed to suicide (14.8%) or drug abuse (1.7%), which were more frequent in younger adults. Although only 27.4% of the study population received treatment in an emergency room or required hospital admission, the probability of admission for the elderly person seen in the emergency room was significantly greater than that for younger adults and children. Of the 4 fatalities that occurred, 3 were classified as suicides and 1 as an accident.
