To our knowledge, this is the second case in the literature presenting methemoglobinemia due to local anesthetic after transvenous cardiac device implantation.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Transvenous pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation procedures are usually performed under local anesthetic, and prilocaine is the most common agent to be used.

Abstract

Transvenous pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation procedures are usually performed under local anesthetic, and prilocaine is the most common agent to be used. The data regarding methemoglobinemia after cardiac device implantation are scarce. Thus, presently described is the case of a 47-year-old female patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia who underwent ICD implantation for secondary prophylaxis and developed cyanosis as a result of prilocaine-associated methemoglobinemia. Prilocaine was administered during the procedure. To our knowledge, this is the second case in the literature presenting methemoglobinemia due to local anesthetic after transvenous cardiac device implantation.

Özet

Transvenöz kalp pili ya da implante edilebilir defib- rilatör (ICD) yerleştirilmesi işlemleri yerel anestezi altında yapılır ve prilokain çoğunlukla tercih edilen anestezik ajan- dır. Kalp cihazı yerleştirilmesi sonrası methemoglobinemi ile ilişkili veriler azdır. Bu nedenle, bu yazıda 47 yaşında ikincil korunma amaçlı ICD yerleştirilen aritmojenik sağ ventrikül kardiyomiyopatisi/displazisi bulunan, işlem sırasında kul- lanılan prilokaine bağlı methemoglobinemi ve siyanoz ge- lişen kadın hasta sunulmuştur. Bilgilerimize göre, bu hasta literatürde transvenöz kalp cihazı yerleştirilmesi sonrasında yerel anestezi ilacına bağlı methemoglobinemi gelişen ikinci hastadır.
