Upon admission, both children showed symptoms of vomiting, pale skin, lethargy, pre-coma, convulsions..., suspected of rat poison poisoning.
Initial information from the children’s relatives said that the same morning, the two sisters followed their mother to the rice fields. While their mother was working, the two sisters picked up a bottle of pink liquid and thought it was soft drink so they opened it and drank it. Just a few minutes later, the two sisters fell into convulsions and turned purple.
Upon discovering the incident, the family immediately took the children to Yen Thanh District General Hospital for emergency treatment. After initial treatment, both were transferred to Nghe An Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital for further emergency care and treatment.
