The article deals with investigation of dynamics of clinical morphological pattern in acute poisoning with organophosphorous insecticides. For this purpose all specific and non-specific effects of this chemical disease are classified according to the moment of their occurrence after poison exposure. Morphological equivalent of specific clinical manifestations at different stages of thanatogenesis of this poisoning was determined. It was shown that intensity of pathological process or specific density of toxic effects per time-unit is a very important criterium for assessment of severity and prognosis of poisoning.
