Abstract
Intoxication is a frequent reason for consultation in the emergency department, and may be voluntary, with the aim of self-medication, or accidental. However, intoxication in pregnant women is poorly described in the literature, with the majority of reports concerning case histories. This study analyses the epidemiological data on intoxication in pregnant women in the mother and child intensive care unit, describes the various clinical and toxic aspects, describes the management methods and assesses the maternal-fetal prognosis of intoxication in pregnant women.
