Abstract |
We experienced a case of thiopental-induced hemolytic anemia with impairment of renal function
after open heart surgery.
The diagnosis was suggested by clinical features, CBC, urinalysis, transfusion reaction study and
chemistry, and finally established by immunohematologic study. We detected antibody against
thiopental in the patient’s serum (end-titer:1:16).
The review of literature was made briefly. |
Key Words:
