台北市私立華興中學今(1)天中午發生學生誤食油桐樹果實事件,共14名學生送往新光及台北榮總醫院。北榮收治4名國中二年級學生,食用量從半顆到8顆不等,其中吃8顆的學生嘔吐較厲害、較虛弱,可能需住院觀察1至2天;新光收治的10名學生經治療後症狀改善,已可進食,陸續出院。
台北市消防局今天中午12時36分接獲通報,位於仰德大道的華興中學有學生疑似誤食油桐子後身體不適,共13名男學生、1名女學生送醫。華興中學表示,學生在中午休息時間誤食校園內油桐樹果實,身體不適後向學務處師長反映,校方隨即協助就醫,全程陪伴並通知家長。
台北榮總副院長李偉強表示,他與職業醫學及臨床毒物部主任楊振昌一起前往急診探視,院內收治的4名學生分別吃了半顆、1顆、3顆及8顆油桐子,目前情況穩定,主要是胃部不適、噁心等腸胃道症狀,先採取禁食、點滴輸液及觀察。食用較少者若症狀緩解,可能今晚即可返家,吃8顆的1名學生則可能收住院,多觀察1至2天。
楊振昌指出,吃半顆的學生主要是肚子不舒服,吃1顆者有虛弱、噁心,吃3顆者嘔吐較明顯,吃8顆者則嘔吐較厲害、較虛弱。不過,4人意識狀況都很好,其中2人接受抽血檢查,結果正常。
楊振昌表示,油桐子含有會引起腸胃道毒性的成分,誤食後可能出現噁心、嘔吐、腹痛,部分人也會腹瀉,依過去資料,約30至45分鐘就可能出現症狀。目前沒有特殊治療方式,主要依症狀給予支持性治療,症狀較明顯者可能需要住院觀察。
他指出,國內過去誤食個案主要是中小學生,油桐果實剝開後,裡面的種子外觀有點像堅果,孩子可能誤以為可以食用。雖然多數個案症狀不至於太嚴重,但油桐子具有毒性,不能隨意食用。
新光醫院小兒科醫師秦家翊表示,收治的10名學生有噁心、腸胃道不適,其中1人有嘔吐情況,最多吃7顆,症狀均已改善,也已可進食,經點滴輸液治療、血液檢驗確認及飲食衛教後,陸續出院。
