- The EXTRIP Workgroup established criteria for extracorporeal toxin removal in cases of metformin poisoning, aiming to assess the effectiveness of this treatment.
- A retrospective study analyzed 201 patients with suspected metformin poisoning, focusing on those meeting the EXTRIP criteria, their treatment, and survival rates.
- Results showed no survival advantage from extracorporeal toxin removal among patients meeting the EXTRIP criteria; however, those not meeting the criteria had a 100% survival rate, indicating the need for further investigation on treatment benefits.
