C
IV fluids may be given to prevent dehydration.
Charcoal may be given to prevent absorption of the poison.
D
Vital signs will be monitored.
Oxygen may be given.
Which row is incorrect?
Answer: row C
Explanation:
Drug Overdose can be treated by activated charcoal. Activated charcoal helps in drug overdose by binding drugs and keep them in the intestine and stomach. This reduces the chances of absorbtion of drug into blood. The drug which was bounded to the charcoal is then released out from the body through stool.
Alcohol overdose causes dehydration, irritation of the stomach lining, causes nausea, and other digestive issues. It can be treated with fluids having low-sugar electrolytes such as coconut water which replaces the lost electrolytes.
Hence the correct option is Row C.
