The main factors determining first day mortality in the hospital, especially within the first 6 hours, is the severity of poisoning, which can quickly lead to vital organ failure. The death in the following hours depends on non-modifiable factors such as old age, comorbidities, and the severity of the condition at the time of first contact with a medical professional. Conclusion. The quality of care for prehospital emergency aid, the timeliness of treatment and diagnostic measures according to the severity of patients, organizational measures related to the timely and appropriate transfer of patients from other departments and hospitals are important modifiable factors.
