Anesthesia machines may not be contaminated with anesthetic vapors when a patient susceptible to malignant hyperthermia (MHS) is to be anesthetized. A clean machine may not always be available, and recommended protocols for preparing a contaminated machine are cumbersome and time-consuming. We
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening condition caused by exposure of susceptible individuals to volatile anaesthetics or suxamethonium. MH-susceptible individuals must avoid exposure to these drugs, so accurate and reproducible processes to remove residual anaesthetic agents from
Background: Household air pollution associated with biomass (wood, dung, charcoal, and crop residue) burning for cooking is estimated to contribute to approximately 4 million deaths each year worldwide, with the greatest burden seen in low and middle-income countries. We investigated the
BACKGROUND
If a malignant hyperthermia-susceptible patient is to receive an anesthetic, an anesthesia machine that has been used previously to deliver volatile anesthetics should be flushed with a high fresh gas flow. Conflicting results from previous studies recommend flush times that vary from 10
Volatile anesthetics potentially trigger malignant hyperthermia crises in susceptible patients. We therefore aimed to identify preparation procedures for the Draeger Primus that minimize residual concentrations of desflurane and sevoflurane with and without activated charcoal Objective: This study examined predictors of globus pallidus necrosis as there was a paucity of literature of globus pallidus necrosis resulted from carbon monoxide poisoning after charcoal burning suicide. Methods: A total of 67 patients who had attempted charcoal burning suicide were
A 77-year-old man presented with dizziness and ataxia after 7-day treatment of phenytoin 100 mg 3 times daily for prophylaxis of post-traumatic seizure. Thrombocytopenia and hematuria were found incipiently and supportive measures were employed. Owing to extremely slow metabolism of phenytoin in
OBJECTIVE
Malignant hyperthermia-susceptible patients have an increased risk during anaesthesia. The aim of this review is to present current knowledge about pathophysiology and triggers of malignant hyperthermia as well as concepts for safe anaesthesiological management of these
BACKGROUND
Venovenous perfusion-induced systemic hyperthermia raises core body temperature by extracorporeal heating of the blood. Five patients with advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma stage IV (4.4+/-1 months after initial diagnosis) received venovenous perfusion-induced systemic hyperthermia
