Delirium tremens in a nine-year-old child
Abstract
The authors report a case of delirium tremens in a 9-year-old American Indian boy, who was later found to have been drinking steadily for 3 years prior to his emergency admission for agitation and delirium. The authors suggest that the use of alcohol by children is an activity that may be more common than most physicians realize.
