Abstract

A patient with gunshots within inches of the skin developed intraoperative vasodilatory hypotension and methemoglobinemia, both recognized consequences of nitrite poisoning. A 1- mg/kg dose of methylene blue transiently and partially reversed methemoglobinemia, but the color of the methylene blue faded rapidly, consistent with bleaching of methylene blue by nitrite in vivo. Methylene blue did not raise blood pressure, consistent with inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthase. Because NO production from nitrite uses an NO synthase (NOS)-independent pathway, methylene blue is expected to have little effect on reversing hypotension from nitrite poisoning. Consider nitrite toxicity in gunshot patients with refractory vasodilatory hypotension and elevated methemoglobin.

低血压和高铁血红蛋白血症伴枪弹残留物中毒1例:亚硝酸盐引起的高铁血红蛋白血症。
一名患者在距离皮肤几英寸的地方中枪,术中出现血管扩张性低血压和高铁血红蛋白血症,两者都是亚硝酸盐中毒的结果。1 mg/kg剂量的亚甲基蓝可短暂和部分逆转高铁血红蛋白血症,但亚甲基蓝的颜色迅速褪色,与体内亚硝酸盐对亚甲基蓝的漂白一致。亚甲基蓝没有升高血压,与抑制一氧化氮合成酶一致。由于亚硝酸盐产生一氧化氮的途径不依赖于一氧化氮合成酶(NOS),因此亚甲基蓝对逆转亚硝酸盐中毒引起的低血压作用不大。考虑亚硝酸盐对难治性血管扩张性低血压和高铁血红蛋白升高的枪伤患者的毒性。

期刊介绍: A & A Case Reports, our new online journal publishing Case Reports, related Editorial Commentary, and Correspondence. Anesthesia & Analgesia 1 and Anesthesiology 2 recently announced that they were suspending publication of Case Reports. One reason is that Case Reports typically reduce the Impact Factor of a journal because they are rarely cited. Regardless of the merits of Impact Factor as a metric of journal worth, journals and their editors necessarily consider Impact Factor in strategic planning. At the same time, Case Reports are appreciated by readers for describing “real life” management of difficult or unusual cases not often encountered by practitioners. In a recent issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Steven Shafer1 identified many Case Reports whose publication launched productive careers dedicated to solving the puzzle posed by an unusual observation in a single patient.
