Review[An attempt to reconcile differences of opinion in the field of malignant hyperthermia].
Two of the persisting controversies concerning malignant hyperthermia (MH) are discussed: storing and dosage of dantrolene and preoperative tactics to be followed with patients who are MH-susceptible. Reasons are presented for the obligation to store sufficient amounts of dantrolene in every operating suite. The second part discusses the question of pretreatment of MH-susceptible patients with dantrolene.
