Análisis de caso clínico de un paciente con dificultades presentadas por intoxicación por etanol para un diagnóstico y tratamiento apropiado

Abstract

Many are the investigations that have been conducted over the years, these data reveal that "Overall, 5.1% of the global burden of disease and injury is attributable to alcohol consumption, calculated in terms of disability-adjusted life years and also if we count that alcohol brings consequences to human health, and its consumption in the long and medium term brings social and economic losses to people and society in general" so this project seeks to analyze a case of ethanol intoxication to know biochemically the processes involved in the absorption of ethanol and the symptomatology presented, seeking to find a treatment that supports the patient in order to avoid complications. For this purpose, a bibliographic research based on reliable sources Pubmed-Scielo-Medline or articles of interest that meet various criteria imposed in this project was used, based on the above shown it was found that the biochemical mechanisms ADH, MEOS, catalase-peroxidase system, are immersed in the process of alcohol absorption and thanks to them it was possible to understand and formulate a possible treatment, which involves processes not only medicines, since intoxication in certain degrees becomes of clinical importance.
