Negative-pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) is a clinical entity of anaesthesiologic relevance, perioperatively caused by obstruction of the conductive airways (upper airway obstruction, UAO) due to laryngospasm in approx. 50% of the cases, its early recognition and treatment by the anaesthesist is
We report the ameliorating effects of prazosin on the cardiovascular CV manifestations and pulmonary edema PE after treatment with antivenom AV failed to improve the conditions of scorpion stung patients.
