The Emergency and Poison Control Department, National Children's Hospital has received a case of a 15-year-old male patient determined to be from using an electronic cigarette.

According to information from the family, the child had been using e-cigarettes for about a year and had stopped using them for about the past three months. However, due to being invited by friends, the child reused e-cigarettes and immediately showed unusual symptoms such as vomiting,ense speaking and irritation. The family quickly took the child to a local hospital for first aid and then transferred him to the National Children's Hospital for emergency care.

At the National Children's Hospital, children were diagnosed with addictive poisoning due to the use of e-cigarettes. The patient was given fluids and actively treated according to the protocol. After two days of treatment, the child's health condition was stable and he was discharged from the hospital.

E-cigarettes contain a certain amount of nicotine a powerful addictive. Nicotine can make children anxious, restless, uncontrollable in behavior, and especially negatively affect the developing brain. This reduces children's memory, ability to concentrate and learn. In addition, some studies show that e-cigarettes also increase the risk of serious diseases such as angina, heart failure, stroke, immunodeficiency and resistance.

To prevent children from using e-cigarettes, doctors recommend that there should be close coordination between schools, families and the child himself. For schools, it is necessary to strengthen communication and health education, instruct students in refusal skills and organize extracurricular activities to help children reduce stress. Students need to learn to say "no" when invited by friends and know how to share with teachers and parents when encountering awkward situations.
