MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA OF ANESTHESIA

Alternate names

MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA OF ANESTHESIA Is also known as hyperthermia of anesthesia

Description

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle that presents as a hypermetabolic response to potent volatile anesthetic gases such as halothane, sevoflurane, desflurane and the depolarizing muscle relaxant succinylcholine, and rarely, to stresses such as vigorous exercise and heat.

Most common symptoms of MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA OF ANESTHESIA

  • Fever
  • Metabolic acidosis
  • Muscle stiffness
  • Ventricular tachycardia
  • Tachypnea

MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO, 5

Alternate names

MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO, 5 Is also known as mhs5

Most common symptoms of MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO, 5

  • Fever
  • Tachycardia
  • Hypercapnia

HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS

Alternate names

HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS Is also known as westphall disease

Description

Hypokalemic periodic paralysis (hypoPP) is characterised by episodes of muscle paralysis lasting from a few to 24-48 hours and associated with a fall in blood potassium levels.

Most common symptoms of HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS

  • Paralysis
  • EMG abnormality
  • Myotonia
  • Mildly elevated creatine phosphokinase
  • Adrenocortical adenoma

HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS, TYPE 1; HOKPP1

Alternate names

HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS, TYPE 1; HOKPP1 Is also known as hypokalemic periodic paralysis, hokpp

Description

There are 2 dominantly inherited, clinically similar types of episodic flaccid generalized weakness, HOKPP and HYPP, that are distinguished by the changes in serum potassium levels during paralytic attacks. In contrast to HYPP, myotonia is usually not present in HOKPP (Jurkat-Rott et al., 2000). Hypokalemic periodic paralysis may also occur as a rare complication of thyrotoxicosis (see TTPP1, {188580}), a disorder with a high frequency in individuals of Asian descent (Kung, 2006).

Most common symptoms of HYPOKALEMIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS, TYPE 1; HOKPP1

  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Muscle weakness
  • Respiratory insufficiency
  • Myopathy
  • Acidosis

THYROTOXIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS

Alternate names

THYROTOXIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS Is also known as thyrotoxic hypokalemic periodic paralysis

Description

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is a rare neurological disease characterized by recurrent episodes of paralysis and hypokalemia during a thyrotoxic state.

Most common symptoms of THYROTOXIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS

  • Muscle weakness
  • Hypertension
  • Hyperreflexia
  • Tremor
  • Obesity

PERIODIC PARALYSIS WITH TRANSIENT COMPARTMENT-LIKE SYNDROME

Description

Periodic paralysis with transient compartment-like syndrome is a rare, genetic, neuromuscular disease characterized by normokalemic episodes of painful muscle cramping followed by progressive, permanent, flaccid weakness, triggered by stress, cold and exercise, associated with myopathic myopathy and painful acute edema with neuronal compression, foot drop and muscle degeneration when located in the tibialis anterior muscle group.
