A case of whole-body rigidity in a patient after orthopedic surgery.
- Abstract:
In our case report, we present a case of swiftly manifesting malignant neuroleptic syndrome in a patient after orthopedic surgery who was treated for a new onset of delirium with a combination of antipsychotic drugs. Thanks to early diagnosis and treatment the patient didn't suffer any organ dysfunction and could have been discharged from our intensive care unit in two days back to the standard unit. The goal of this case report is to highlight this rare yet still life-threatening condition to our colleagues to help them take care of patients with such diagnoses in the future.

- Abstract:
Kazuistika popisuje případ rychle vzniklého maligního neuroleptického syndromu u pacientky, která byla po ortopedickém výkonu pro nově vzniklý delirantní stav léčena kombinací antipsychotik. Díky časné diagnostice a terapii nedošlo k orgánovému postižení a pacientka tak mohla být po dvou dnech pobytu na resuscitačním lůžku přeložena zpět na standardní lůžko. Cílem kazuistiky je tento vzácný, ale život ohrožující stav přiblížit našim kolegům a v budoucnu jim tak případně ulehčit péči o tyto pacienty. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
