Declarations
:
: All methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations. We obtained de-identified data from NPDS. This study was reviewed by Colorado Multiple Institutional Review Board on Human Subjects Protection and determined to be exempt (COMIRB#: 22-1088).
: Not Applicable.
: AAPC supports the NPDS, which includes the data of all self-reporting patients collected by callers during poison information calls and exposure management by the country’s PCCs. However, NPDS data do not reflect the total amount of exposure to a particular substance. Additional exposure to PCC can therefore be under-reported. Accordingly, NPDS data should not confirm poisoning or overdoses, and the AAPCC does not fully verify the accuracy of each report. Therefore, the results based on NPDS data do not necessarily reflect the AAPCC’s opinion.
: The authors declare no competing interests.
