SubjectiveSubjective CC/HxCC: Mr. Baker was undergoing radical
prostatectomy under general anesthesia for prostate cancer. He suddenly began to spike a fever, and developed muscle rigidity on the OR table just after initial abdominal incision was made. A sterile dressing was applied to his incision and he was brought to the recovery room. Chart review discloses that his prostate cancer was diagnosed by his primary care physician who noted a firm irregular nodule on his prostate during a routine physical exam. When biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, he was scheduled for surgery.

DefinitionsDefinitions
Fever Regulated rise to a new “set point” of body temperature
Hyperthermia Body metabolic heat production or environmental
heat load exceeds normal heat loss capacity or when there is impaired heat loss
Why do we differentiate? Hyperthermia can be rapidly fatal and characteristically does not respond to antipyretics

RhabdomyolysisRhabdomyolysis
Muscle necrosis results in systemic manifestations
Related to muscle injury or excessive muscle contraction
A syndrome of multiple etiologies Features include:
Myoglobinuria Renal insufficiency Markedly elevated creatine kinase (CK) levels
Frequently, multiorgan failure as a consequence of other complications of the trauma
Hyperkalemia in 10-40% of cases, due to release of K+ from injured skeletal muscle

Malignant hyperthermia
Malignant hyperthermia
Genetic mutation of ryanodine receptor type 1; autosomal
Disorder causes increased intracellular calcium; prevents Ca2+ reuptake after contraction and prevents relaxation
Usually asymptomatic until anesthesia

Treatment:Stop surgery and anesthesia ASAP Dantrolene
Inhibits the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, reducing actin-myosin contractile activity
