Delayed Onset Malignant Hyperthermia after Sevoflurane
Malignant hyperthermia is a hypermetabolic response to inhalation agents (such as halothane, sevoflurane, and desflurane), succinylcholine, vigorous exercise, and heat. Reactions develop more frequently in males than females (2 : 1).

Malignant hyperthermia is a rare metabolic crisis triggered by volatile anesthetics and/or succinylcholine. It is important to remember that hyperthermia is not always present and may even present late in the course.

Acute postoperative sepsis mimicking symptomology suspicious for malignant hyperthermia: case report [PDF]
Background: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction with non-specific clinical features that can mimic other clinical conditions with hyper metabolic state such as malignant hyperthermia.

Profile of malignant hyperthermia susceptibility reports confirmed with muscular contracture test in Brazil [PDF]
Background and objectives: Malignant hyperthermia is an autosomal dominant hypermetabolic pharmacogenetic syndrome, with a mortality rate of 10%–20%, which is triggered by the use of halogenated inhaled anesthetics or muscle relaxant succinylcholine. The

Malignant Hyperthermia in PICU—From Diagnosis to Treatment in the Light of Up-to-Date Knowledge
Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) is a rare, hereditary, life-threatening disease triggered by volatile anesthetics and succinylcholine. Rarely, MH can occur after non-pharmacological triggers too. MH was detected more often in children and young adults, which

Impact of a digital manual for guidance on malignant hyperthermia: patient education
Background Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare, hereditary disease with a hypermetabolic response to volatile anesthetics/succinylcholine. Susceptible patients face difficulties due to a lack of knowledge about MH.

Malignant hyperthermia: a case report with a literature review [PDF]
Malignant hyperthermia is an extremely rare, potentially lethal disorder that occurs in susceptible patients who are exposed to triggering agents such as volatile anesthetic gases or depolarizing muscle relaxants. The clinical manifestations of malignant

SummaryMalignant hyperthermia is a rare autosomal dominant trait that predisposes affected individuals to great danger when exposed to certain anaesthetic triggering agents (such as potent volatile anaesthetics and succinylcholine). A sudden hypermetabolic reaction in skeletal muscle leading to hyperthermia and massive rhabdomyolysis can occur.
