Two infant deaths after inhaling baby powder.

K Motomatsu, H Adachi, T Uno.   

Abstract

The clinical course of two baby girls who died following accidental inhalation of baby powder is described. Frequent tracheobroncheal lavage was not effective therapy. An experiment using eight mice revealed that the inhalation of baby powder was fatal. Possible treatments, including tracheobroncheal lavage with saline solution and application of chelating agents, are discussed.
