Oxygen transport, the major function of hemoglobin, is dependent upon reduced heme iron. In the red cell, the heme iron is maintained in the reduced form by the methemoglobin reduction system. When the balance between oxidation and reduction of heme iron is perturbed due to the presence of excessive oxidants, decreased reducing capacity or the presence

The diagnosis of methemoglobinemia should be considered in patients presenting with cyanosis and hypoxia. A variety of frequently used medications are capable of inducing methemoglobinemia, with dapsone and benzocaine being common culprits. Unique features, such as a saturation gap and chocolate-brown-colored blood, can raise suspicion for ...

Methemoglobinemia during anesthesia
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1962An unusual episode of methemoglobinemia during general anesthesia, resulting from lubrication of an endotracheal tube with ethyl aminobenzoate ointment, has been described. Ethyl aminobenzoate has been shown to be potentially hazardous when employed as an ointment on an endotracheal tube, as an aerosol, or by topical application to mucous membranes ...

Methemoglobin is a form of hemoglobin that contains the ferric form of iron rather than the ferrous form. The ferric form hampers the ability of blood cells to carry oxygen and deliver it to the tissues throughout the body. When there is a large fraction of Methemoglobin in the blood, clinical symptoms appear.
