Know the prognostic indicators that rapidly predict death from liver failure from acetaminophen toxicity and need for emergent referral to liver transplant center. 4. Know the recommendations for additional treatment measures such as activated charcoal, hemodialysis, fomepizole, and higher or extended NAC dosing.
