Abstract
|
|
|
|
Propofol has been used for the treatment of refractory status epilepticus, but propofol can cause propofol infusion syndrome (PRIS). PRIS is rarely developed and often fatal. The syndrome is characterized by metabolic acidosis, rhadomyolysis, and cardiac failure. Most reports were described in critically ill patients undergoing long-term propofol infusion at high doses. But many systemic confounding factors are mixed with the fatality of PRIS and there are no report on epilepsia partialis continua which has stable systemic conditions. We report PRIS in a patient with epilepsia partialis continua.
