Meperidine Induced Seizure in a Patient With Lyme Borreliosis
A 15 years old child with Lyme borreliosis was treated with meperidine via a patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pump for pain management. He had no history of seizure and had normal hepatic and renal functions. At the 7th hour of meperidine PCA delivery, generalized tonic-clonic seizure was developed and successfully suppressed with antiepileptics and no neurologic sequel was occurred. The tota...
متن کاملUse of meperidine in patient-controlled analgesia and the development of a normeperidine toxic reaction.
HYPOTHESIS Intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA) meperidine hydrochloride can be used with a reasonable margin of safety. DESIGN A retrospective review was performed of 355 medical records of patients receiving IV PCA meperidine treatment. Four groups of patients were defined, based on daily meperidine dose and the presence or absence of central nervous system excitation adverse e...
متن کاملAdverse reaction in a patient with aspirin-induced asthma treated with zafirlukast.
Asthmatic patients receiving antileukotrienes may develop hypereosinophilia as a part of a Churg-Strauss syndrome. It is unclear if this effect is directly related to the administration of antileukotrienes or a consequence of the corticosteroid-sparing effect of antileukotrienes unmasking a Churg-Strauss syndrome. We present a case of hypereosinophilia related to zafirlukast therapy. The patien...
متن کاملProstaglandin levels in blood plasma during asthmatic attacks in patients with aspirin idiosyncrasy.
It has been suggested that prostaglandin release is an important factor in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. Aspirin inhibits prostaglandin synthesis, yet there are a group of patients, with aspirin idiosyncrasy, who develop asthma after ingestion of aspirin. We measured prostaglandin levels in seven individuals with this syndrome. Only trace amounts of PGE2 and PGF2a were found in plasma d...
متن کاملComplement components and IgE in patients with asthma and aspirin idiosyncrasy.
Levels of circulating IgE, total haemolytic complement, and components C4 and C3 were measured in 16 asthmatics with aspirin idiosyncrasy and in control subjects. IgE levels were mostly within normal limits. No differences were found between the complement profiles-in particular the C4 levels-in the two groups. As low levels of C4 have been found in patients with intrinsic asthma, these results...
