Abstract

Central anticholinergic syndrome is considered to reveal after blocking of central and peripheral cholinergic muscarinic receptors. Although central anticholinergic syndrome can be diagnosed with its clinical signs, the definitive diagnose can be made according to the response with physostigmin administration. It is aimed to discuss the therapy of a child who revealed the clinical signs of central anticholinergic syndrome (agitation, mydriasis, excitation, tachycardia, flushing, and fever) after resuscitation

Abstract

Antikolinerjik sendrom, kolinerjik muskarinik reseptörlerin santral ve periferik olarak blokajı ile oluşur. Santral antikolinerjik sendrom bulguları klinik olarak tanınabilmesine rağmen, kesin tanı, klinik bulguların oluşmasından sonra, fizostigmin verildiğinde hastanın bulgularının düzelmesiyle konulabilir. Biz de resusitasyon sonrası bir çocuk hastada, tedavi edilemeyen ajitasyon, midriyazis, uyuklama, eksitasyon, taşikardi, kızarıklık ve ateş gibi klinik bulguların tespit edilmesi ile santral antikolinerjik sendrom düşündüğümüz olguyu sunmayı amaçladık
