  1. Amazing podcast agin Dr. Lakshay. Sums up everything neatly. Could you shed some light on atropine challenge test that many studies suggest?

    1. Thanks for listening to the podcast Shoeb
      And extremely Sorry for such a late reply.

      An ampoule of Atropine may be given IV when you have a suspicion of OPC toxicity. An increase in heart rate by more than 20-25 beats/min with atropine suggests that the patient does not have significant poisoning.
