Does morphine stabilize fluctuating blood pressure and body temperature in a patient with paroxysmal sympathetic storm after spontaneous pontine hemorrhage?
Morphine may be an effective treatment for stabilizing blood pressure and body temperature in patients with paroxysmal sympathetic storm following pontine hemorrhage.
Ko et al. (2010) conducted a case report in Paroxysmal sympathetic storm after spontaneous pontine hemorrhage (n=1). Morphine was evaluated on Stabilization of fluctuating blood pressure and body temperature. Morphine dramatically stabilized fluctuating blood pressure and body temperature in a patient with paroxysmal sympathetic storm after spontaneous pontine hemorrhage.
