OBJECTIVE
To alert physicians to the possibility of pulmonary edema as a complication of diabetic ketoacidosis.
METHODS
We report a case of adult respiratory distress syndrome after resuscitative efforts to compensate the first episode of diabetic ketoacidosis in a previously healthy young
Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of hydrochlorothiazide therapy. We describe three patients who developed this serious adverse reaction. A 64-year-old woman developed dypsnea and hypotension within 60 minutes of taking a single dose of
BACKGROUND
Anaphylactic shock and pulmonary edema are unusual but life-threatening adverse reactions to drugs. We encountered a case of serious anaphylactic shock and acute pulmonary edema caused by a single oral intake of acetazolamide, a frequently used medication by several medical specialties
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a life-threatening event that can cause permanent disability. This life-threatening event can be further complicated by subsequent cardiac and pulmonary disability. The presence of a neurogenic cardiomyopathy and pulmonary edema increases the morbidity and
A 44-year-old pregnant female with a gestation of 29 weeks suddenly developed abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and laboratory study showed anemia, elevated liver enzymes, and lower platelets. HELLP syndrome was diagnosed and urgent delivery was needed. In order to correct the plasma volume and
Medical records of 150 patients with high-altitude pulmonary edema seen over a 39-month period in a Colorado Rocky Mountain ski area at 2,928 m (9,600 ft) (mean age 34.4 years; 84% male) were reviewed. The mean time to the onset of symptoms was 3 +/- 1.3 days after arrival. Common symptoms were

A patient with probable hydrochlorothiazide-induced pulmonary edema is described. A 70-year-old woman experienced nausea, diaphoresis, and severe respiratory distress approximately 1/2 hour after taking an Aldactazide tablet. She had experienced a flu-like syndrome after taking a single tablet two
This is a case report of immediate acute pulmonary edema following the intravenous administration of Stronger Neo-Minophagen C (glycyrrhizin) and Chlor-Trimeton (chlorpheniramine maleate). The patient was a 15-year-old Japanese boy who had a previous history of surgery for right testicular tumor and
BACKGROUND
Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) occurs in the setting of an acute neurological insult and in the absence of a primary cardiopulmonary cause. No unifying theory on NPE pathogenesis exists. NPE triggered by a discrete neurological lesion is rare, but such cases offer valuable insight into
BACKGROUND
Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema is often associated with increased intracranial pressure and can be the initial manifestation of hyponatremic encephalopathy. Marathon runners tend to develop conditions that lead to hyponatremia.
OBJECTIVE
To describe the development and treatment of
BACKGROUND
Certain fluorocarbon polymers can produce a clinical syndrome called polymer fume fever when the products of pyrolysis are inhaled.
CONCLUSIONS
A previously healthy 21-year-old white man presented with severe chest tightness, difficulty in breathing, pyrexia, nausea, vomiting, and a dry
Methyl bromide (MeBr) is used as an insecticide fumigant. Four deaths and three recent hospitalizations have resulted from exposures to MeBr in Dade County, FL. Six cases occurred during burglaries of tented houses over a nine-month period. In four lethal exposures, the symptoms of nausea, vomiting,
A 19-year old woman ingested an unknown amount of sodium azide (NaN3). The earliest symptoms were nausea and loss of vision. Within a few hours her clinical features were dominated by central nervous system signs, acute pulmonary edema, lactic acidosis, and hypothermia. The patient died within 12
We present the case of a patient who attempted suicide by ingestion of the rodenticide zinc phosphide. Zinc phosphide manifests its immediate toxicity through production of phosphine gas. Signs and symptoms of toxicity include nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, and changes in mental status; immediate death
