Malignant Hyperthermia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Perioperative Nursing (United Kingdom), 2005
Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) is a rare genetic condition which may manifest for the first time during anaesthesia associated with a routine surgical procedure. Characterised initially by muscle rigidity, increased body temperature and metabolic acidosis, the syndrome may prove fatal unless prompt, effective treatment is administered.

Recognizing and managing a malignant hyperthermia crisis: guidelines from the European Malignant Hyperthermia Group [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 2010
Survival from a malignant hyperthermia (MH) crisis is highly dependent on early recognition and prompt action. MH crises are very rare and an increasing use of total i.v.

Malignant Hyperthermia

open access: yesAORN Journal, 2020
Malignant hyperthermia is a rare manifestation of a genetic mutation involving the ryanodine receptors. This mutation causes a sustained intracellular calcium release that is triggered by certain anesthetics such as depolarizing neuromuscular blockers ...

Malignant Hyperthermia

Science, 1992
In humans genetically predisposed to malignant hyperthermia, anesthesia can induce skeletal muscle rigidity, hypermetabolism, and high fever, which, if not immediately reversed, can lead to tissue damage or death. The corresponding condition in swine leads to stress-induced deaths and devalued meat products. Abnormalities in the Ca

Malignant Hyperthermia

ASA Refresher Courses in Anesthesiology, 1980
In MH, skeletal muscle acutely and unexpectedly increases its oxygen consumption and lactate production, resulting in greater heat production, respiratory and metabolic acidosis, muscle ridigity, sympathetic stimulation, and increased cellular permeability.

Malignant Hyperthermia

Southern Medical Journal, 1983
Malignant hyperthermia, a rapidly progressive, frequently lethal syndrome was not described until quite recently. Although treatment with the drug dantrolene has changed its face, a clear understanding and deep respect for the syndrome are necessary to keep fatalities and tragic sequelae to a minimum.

Malignant Hyperthermia

Seminars in Neurology, 1991
Although MH is a rare disease, occurring 1 in 7000 to 14,000 anesthetics in children and one in 50,000 to 200,000 anesthetics in adults, the critical care nurses must possess knowledge of its causes and treatment. MH can be potentially fatal. With aggressive intervention, both morbidity and mortality will be reduced.
