Organophosphorus Toxicity
In most people who are exposed to organophosphates, pesticides are involved. The first organophosphate insecticide was developed in the middle of the 1800s, but it wasn't until World War II that it was widely used. Organophosphates are substances that are employed as drugs, pesticides, and weaponized nerve agents. Small pupils, sweating, muscle tremors, confusion, increased saliva and tear production, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting are a few symptoms. It can take hours for symptoms to go away once they first arise. Due to the widespread usage of these chemicals in agriculture, the majority of organophosphate toxicity cases nowadays involve farmers and other individuals who operate in this field

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
