| Abstract | Abstract: Understanding the extent of maternal deaths especially those due to medicolegal causes as homicide, suicide, accidents, illegal abortion and medical malpractice in women of childbearing age, may lead to improved identification of preventable problems that contribute to maternal morbidity and mortality. Maternal death due to unnatural (medicolegal) causes i.e. deaths due to violence, sudden and unexpected deaths, deaths due to medical malpractice and, in particular, those due to trauma- are increasing and forming the main causes of the maternal deaths. Maternal deaths due to natural causes i.e. direct or indirect obstetrical causes are decreasing nowadays, as a result of rapid progress in the methods of diagnosis and treatment of the various medical conditions affecting women during pregnancy, delivery and puerperium. Medical malpractice represented an important cause of the maternal deaths, especially with the development of the medical care standards. Because of this, if an accident happens the obstetrician more than any other doctor perhaps can find himself in the courts. To avoid this he has to know very well the causes of maternal mortality in order to avoid them as far as possible. |

| Abstract | SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION Household products have potentially been associated with health risks for the building occupants. Many compositions of these household products have been shown to cause toxicological hazards. Failure to recognize the seriousness of the exposure to the household products and to provide adequate therapy could result in morbidity and mortality. Most exposure episodes to the household products do not result in severe or lethal intoxications; however they may be markers of inadequate supervision, behavioral problems and maltreatment. The present work was designed to study and evaluate the patients with acute household products poisoning who were admitted to Benha Poisoning Control Unit (BPCU) and also to express the extent, morbidity and mortality of these poisonings. The present study was conducted on 185 patients with acute household products poisoning who were admitted to BPCU in the period from the beginning of August 2008 to the end of September 2009. The included patients were subjected to epidemiological, clinical and investigational studies. The collected data were subjected to statistical analysis after being tabulated and organized. |
