Results: Satisfaction including satisfaction levels was as follows: heat and cooling systems (44.8%)- facilities (48.3%) - Food Quality (44.8%) - daily clothes and sheets change(41.6%)- Sanitation and hygience (48.3%) - room lighting ( 56%) - the speed of filing reception files(58.6%)- Nurse attitude (55.2) - time presence of clinical nurses on the patient's bedside (58.6%) - appropriate communication with sick relatives (55.2%). Highest level of patient satisfaction was as follows: satisfaction of nurse time presence on the patient's bedside (58.6) - the speed of filing reception files and the patient good guidance by receptionist(58.6%) and room lighting (58%).

Abstract
Background and Aim: Aluminum phosphide poisoning is one of the fatal poisonings in Asian countries, including Pakistan and India, which requires urgent treatment. Since one of the most important symptoms in patients poisoned with aluminum phosphide is cardiovascular manifestations; it seems that electrocardiogram and echocardiographic changes are one of the important things that need to be measured in patients poisoned with this substance. Therefore, the study was designed to investigate electrocardiogram and echocardiographic changes in patients poisoned with aluminum phosphide.
Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted cross-sectionally 2019-2021 on 107 patients poisoned with aluminum phosphide who referred to the poisoning emergency of Baharloo Hospital in Tehran. All patients were included in the study due to taking tablets, solution or inhalation of aluminum phosphide. Finally, the patients› information was collected based on the variables investigated in this study including age, gender, poisoning dose, time interval between taking pills and admission to the hospital, systolic blood pressure level, electrocardiogram and echocardiography changes.
Results: The mean systolic blood pressure was 107 mmHg at the beginning of the study that changed to 103 mmHg after 24 hours. In addition, the mean diastolic blood pressure was 71.19 mmHg at the beginning of the study that changed to 68.66 mmHg after 24 hours. The blood pH of the patients at the beginning of the study and after 24 hours, was 6.99 and 7.39, respectively (P-value= 0.081). The mean EF was 40.68at the beginning of the study which, on average, changed to 46.57 mmHg after 24 hours (%5.21 increase, P-value= 0.029).
Conclusion: The results of the present study showed that extensive changes in the echocardiography of the heart, especially the left ventricular ejection fraction, as well as the patient›s ECG could indicate the severity of heart poisoning in patients poisoned with aluminum phosphide.
