Talk:Malignant hyperthermia

message: I changed the object of "life-threatening" because it is not the trait itself that is dangerous, but the interaction with the anesthetic agents. Also, the incidence given is for events, not the presence of the trait.  Osmodiar 11:18, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: I added a description of the hypermetabolic state which comes between the initial release of calcium and the rhabdomyolisis.  Hyperthermia is present about as frequently as rigidity, and its inclusion helps explain the name of this syndrome. Osmodiar 11:32, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: Have done a bit o' tidying and added a couple of things. The references should should be linked to the bottom reference list and when I get a moment I might come back and do that. Turning into a nice article. Well done on the work so far.Mmoneypenny 20:21, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I would like to add this external link to the MH page: http://pie.med.utoronto.ca/MH
It's a good resource for clinicians and patients to learn about MH diagnosis and treatment, current research and has instructions for acute treatment and post-crisis treatment. The website was developed at Toronto General Hospital by the Malignant Hyperthermia Investigation Unit, so it is an authoritative source. Is this ok?

thread_title:  New External Link? 

message: Can I ask what the source is for the statement that monoamine oxidase inhibitors are "suspected of causing MH?"  My understanding is that MH is a symptom of serotonin syndrome(which, incidentally, should be mentioned in this article) — that is, it is not the MAOI per se that causes MH but the interaction of the MAOI with another serotonergic drug (such as an SSRI) — rather than a similar syndrome.  I have never heard of MH being caused by an MAOI alone in normal clinical doses (although there have been cases reported in overdose of MAOIs alone, including moclobemide).

replies: text: I looked into this further...it seems that in some earlier diagnostic criteria for serotonin syndrome, the phrase "malignant hyperpyrexia" was used to refer to the similar symptoms such as the characteristic high fever.  More recent criteria sets seem to have substituted "fever" (up to 40°C) but this might still be something to watch out for in older descriptions of serotonin syndrome.  (The term "serotonin syndrome" is relatively new — for example, in 1984, when Libby Zion died from what is now recognised to have been serotonin syndrome, although the interaction was known (if, apparently, not to the residents who were treating Libby), the term was not yet in use.  Not sure when if was coined or by whom, but I'm guessing it was sometime within a few years after the approval of fluoxetine (Prozac) in the USA. Mia229 (talk) 20:16, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

message: There was quite a bit of misinformation on this page so I have begun to correct much of it, including removing references to non-triggering agents that have been purported to cause MH (since disproven) and attempting to get rid of the myth that MH occurs postoperatively.
