LipidRescue™ Resuscitation

Yesterday, I reversed adverse drug reactions in a 27 y.o. male with altered mental status, hallucinations, aggressive behavior (requiring restraints), sinus tachycardia, elevated blood pressures and periodic clonus posturing. I had only 60 mL of 20% lipid emulsions but within 5-10 minutes, vitals signs stabilized and aggressive behavior resolved; and patient returned to baseline affect. Urine tox screen with enzyme immunoassay indicated only THC > 50 nanogram. Clinical presentations and discussions with poison control suggested a possible “synthetic marijuana” ingestion. My closest advanced care hospital is over 3 hours away by ground and the LipidRescue protocol likely prevented an adverse turn of events and/or medical airlift. It may be very useful for the litany of annual ER visits related to ingestions of "synthetic marijuana" and/or “bath salts”. I was able to discharge the patient this a.m. after <24 hrs. hospitalization and required no additional medication and/or procedures. I appreciate the efforts and dedication to the developers of this life-saving protocol.
