Delayed-onset malignant hyperthermia in association with rocuronium use.
PURPOSE Two cases of malignant hyperthermia suspected to be related to the use of a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocker are reported. SUMMARY A pharmacogenetic disorder that may occur in as many as 1 in 3000 anesthesia procedures, malignant hyperthermia has been linked to the use of certain anesthetic gases and depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (e.g., succinylcholine). Although non...
متن کاملDelayed Onset Malignant Hyperthermia after Sevoflurane
Malignant hyperthermia is a hypermetabolic response to inhalation agents (such as halothane, sevoflurane, and desflurane), succinylcholine, vigorous exercise, and heat. Reactions develop more frequently in males than females (2 : 1). The classical signs of malignant hyperthermia are hyperthermia, tachycardia, tachypnea, increased carbon dioxide production, increased oxygen consumption, acidosis...
متن کاملMalignant Hyperthermia
''Malignant Hypothermia'' syndrome is a rare, but dangerous occurrence, the aetiology of which is not known. Up to this date 180 cases have been reported. This syndrome i's seen generally in :male children over age of two years, and especially in adolescent males. Also those people with muscular abnormalities are more susciptable to this illnes'S. Anaesthetic agent such as halothane or muscular...
متن کاملExercise-Induced Rhabdomyolysis and Stress-Induced Malignant Hyperthermia Events, Association with Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptibility, and RYR1 Gene Sequence Variations
Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) and stress-induced malignant hyperthermia (MH) events are syndromes that primarily afflict military recruits in basic training and athletes. Events similar to those occurring in ER and in stress-induced MH events are triggered after exposure to anesthetic agents in MH-susceptible (MHS) patients. MH is an autosomal dominant hypermetabolic condition that occurs in g...
متن کاملDelayed onset of suspected malignant hyperthermia during sevoflurane anesthesia in an Afghan trauma patient: a case report.
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare pathologic hypermetabolic pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle calcium regulation following exposure to depolarizing muscle relaxants and/or volatile anesthetics. Although its pathogenesis is relatively well understood, there is wide variability in both the time of onset and the presentation of clinical signs and symptoms. In some circumstances the d...
