Malignant Hyperthermia | Critical Incidents | Anaesthesia Review Hub

Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) is a rare but life-threatening anaesthetic emergency that demands rapid diagnosis and immediate treatment. Every anaesthetist must be prepared to recognize the early warning signs and initiate prompt management to prevent mortality. In this Critical Incidents module from Anaesthesia Review Hub, we cover: • Pathophysiology of malignant hyperthermia • Triggering agents (volatile anaesthetics & succinylcholine) • Early and late clinical signs • Role of ETCO₂ monitoring • Differential diagnosis • Immediate management protocol • Dantrolene dosing and administration • Management of hyperkalemia & acidosis • Post-crisis ICU care • Preparation of MH cart and OT readiness This video is essential for anaesthesia residents, exam preparation (theory, viva, OSCE), and practising anaesthesiologists handling perioperative crises. Be crisis-ready. Save lives with timely action. #MalignantHyperthermia, #CriticalIncidents, #AnaesthesiaReviewHub, #AnaesthesiaEmergency, #Dantrolene, #PerioperativeCrisis, #MDanaesthesia, #DNBanaesthesia, #OTEmergency, #CrisisManagement, #AnaesthesiaExam,
