Rationale, Aims And Objectives: Errors in hospitals during the preparation and administration of intravenous drugs to infants and children have been reported to a rate of 13% to 84%. This study aimed to investigate the potential for hazardous events that may lead to an accident for preparation and administration of drug injection in a pediatric department and to describe a reduction plan of risks.

Methods: The preliminary hazard analysis (PHA) method was implemented by a multidisciplinary working group over a period of 5 months (April-August 2014) in infants aged from 28 days to 2 years.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to reduce the risk of errors when administering oral medications to infants aged 28 days to 2 years.

Material And Methods: The method of the preliminary risk analysis (PRA) was implemented by a multidisciplinary group in a hospital service of pediatrics. The study focused on the phase of preparation of drugs by nurses before administration.

The population was composed of 76 male patients (mean age=36.14). All of them having committed a violent offence indexed in their institutional file: (1) sexual offences on children; (2) rapes of adult women; (3) homicide offence; and (4) assaults and batteries.

Benzimidazoles compounds like omeprazole (OME) and thiabendazole (TBZ) mediate CYP1A1 induction differently from classical aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligands, 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC) and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). To clarify the involvement of an intracellular signal pathway in CYP1A1 induction by OME and TBZ, the TBZ, OME and 3-MC signal-transducing pathways were compared by using specific protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors in primary culture of rat hepatocytes. The effect of OME and TBZ (75-250 microM) on cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) expression was therefore studied in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes after 24 h, 48 h and 72 h of exposure.

Carbaryl and thiabendazole, two widely used pesticides, have been shown to induce cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) expression, but neither compound is capable of displacing [3H] 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-P-dioxin from its aryl hydrocarbon receptor binding site. In the present study, we investigated the transcriptional regulation of CYP1A1 as well as other genes in various human hepatoma HepG2 cell lines stably transfected with the chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) reporter gene and cloned under the control of each of 14 promoters or response elements from relevant stress genes. Carbaryl and thiabendazole were found to activate CYP1A1 at the level of transcription, as demonstrated by the dose-dependent increase in reporter CAT and CYP1A1 mRNAs.
