Statistical methods / analysis
The calculated sample was determined by the ratio difference formula resulting in 18 patients, taking as reference a power of 80% and alpha of 5. The data will be reported as mean and standard deviation or median and range, accordingly to data normality distribution. To compare the standard deviation, a Fischer test will be applied in the correlation of coefficients. Confidence intervals of 95% will be used. Evaluation of qualitative variables through Chi square (tables 2x2 or 2x3) where the difference was established when the p was less than or equal to 0.05.

Summary
Brief summary
Toluene is widely available in over-the-counter products and is most commonly used abuse substance as an inhaled drug in developing countries. The clinical picture of these patients is hypokalemic paralysis and metabolic acidosis. The treatment for this intoxication is not studied, and is expert opinion based on hydration and intravenous potassium replacement; however, the treatment of acidosis is not established. Authors designed a randomized controlled clinical trial, in patients with acute toluene intoxication, who are admitted at the emergency department. Inclusion criteria are patients greater than or equal to 18 years with toluene poisoning clinical diagnosis, recently inhaled toluene history (less than or equal to 7 days), pH less than or equal to 7.25, and serum potassium between 1.1-5.5 mmol/L. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to the administration on Group A, sodium bicarbonate and group B, No sodium bicarbonate. Group A will receive 100 mmol sodium bicarbonate as 4 hours infusion for up to 3 doses if the pH is less than 7.30. In group B, normal saline solution will be administered. Serum electrolytes and venous or arterial blood gases every 4 hours since admission for up to 3 samples will be analyzed. The main outcome is to evaluate the time of metabolic acidosis resolution measured in hours.
