In this episode, Chloe Gomez, DNP, CRNA, breaks down how to quickly differentiate Serotonin Syndrome, Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), and Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) - a must-know topic for anesthesia learners and board prep.
We cover: ✔️ Key clinical signs and classic presentations ✔️ Triggering medications and anesthetic agents ✔️ Rigidity vs clonus vs hyperreflexia ✔️ Why ETCO₂ matters in MH ✔️ Treatment plans: cyproheptadine, dantrolene, bromocriptine, supportive care ✔️ High-yield NBCRNA/NCE test pearls ✔️ Real-world perioperative implications
