Locked In: Fever, Paralysis, and a Mystery Pill
Season 4
Episode 5
Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description
A fever that refuses to break with ordinary medicine. Muscles rigid enough to trap a conscious patient inside the body. And the diagnostic chaos caused by “a round white pill.”
Your patient. Your diagnosis. Your decision.
An interactive medication-safety case involving a severe drug reaction, hyperthermia, muscle rigidity, altered mental status, medication identification, supportive care, and competing diagnoses.
