Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder of anesthesia. Recent advances dealing with epidemiology of MH and the safe anesthetic course of MH susceptible patients are shortly presented here with a special insight into the preparation of modern anesthesia workstations, which they will
In a case-history the authors describe the development of malignant hyperthermia in conjunction with epidural anaesthesia. The development of this syndrome was arrested by early therapy with dantrolene and comprehensive treatment. A brief account of the character of this syndrome and its treatment
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a complex pharmacogenetic disorder of muscle metabolism. To more closely examine the complexities of MH and other related muscle disorders, the Malignant Hyperthermia Association of the United States (MHAUS) recently sponsored a scientific conference at which an
The essential epidemiologic, pathophysiologic and clinical data of malignant hyperthermia are presented. Prophylactic measures, early recognition and an effective therapy schedule may reduce the appallingly high lethality of this rare complication during general anaesthesia.
A patient who had malignant hyperthermia that apparently was triggered by nitrous oxide anesthesia even though he was premedicated with dantrolene sodium was successfully managed on a separate occasion using dantrolene without nitrous oxide.
Malignant hyperthermia is a potentially fatal disease that may be triggered by the administration of specific drugs or by stress. Although most often associated with general anesthesia, stress can be a significant stimulus and is therefore of concern to the general dentist. The decision as to how
A case of pregnancy complicated by malignant hyperthermia susceptibility is reported. Serum CPK and electrolyte concentrations were measured during pregnancy and labour. Labour and delivery were managed successfully under epidural analgesia using plain bupivacaine 0.5%.
The effect of the intravenous administration of dantrolene 3.5 mg/kg body weight on leg metabolism during porcine malignant hyperthermia (MH) was investigated in six Pietrain pigs. Arterial pH improved only slowly after dantrolene and was associated with the continuing efflux of lactate from the
A malignant hyperthermia (MH) crisis is a medical emergency. To give the patient the best possible chance for a successful outcome, a swift, coordinated, multidisciplinary team response is necessary. Malignant hyperthermia occurs infrequently and, as such, details about its diagnosis, treatment, and
The objective of this study was to assess the knowledge of the nursing professionals in a surgical center about malignant hyperther- mia.This is a descriptive exploratory study on malignant hyperthermia conducted with mid- and high-level nursing professionals in the surgical center of an institution
BACKGROUND
Surface membrane dihydropyridine receptor Ca2+ channels may play a role in the response of malignant hyperthermia-susceptible skeletal muscle to volatile anesthetics.
METHODS
We determined the effect of halothane, enflurane, and isoflurane on the binding of the Ca2+ channel blocker
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a chemically induced, genetic myopathy characterized by metabolic and respiratory acidosis, arrhythmias, hyperpyrexia, and muscular rigidity usually occurring during or within 24 hours postanesthesia. It is initiated by some anesthetic drugs, muscle relaxants, and
Some non-rigid Malignant Hyperthermia Susceptible (MHS) patients have a greater than normal incidence of fractures. Radiologically their long bones are slightly thinner than normal. Excessive numbers of caries because of thin dental enamel may also be present. The Malignant Hyperthermic (MH) defects
OBJECTIVE
This report describes a new fatal syndrome observed in adolescent males at the initial presentation of diabetes mellitus. The features include hyperglycemic hyperosmolar coma complicated by a malignant hyperthermia-like picture with fever, rhabdomyolysis, and severe cardiovascular
We tested the hypothesis that lymphocytes from swine with susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (MH) had calcium extrusion activity higher than unaffected swine. Cytoplasmic concentration of ionized calicum was determined by use of dual emission spectrofluorometry and measurement of the ratio of
