Cutaneous Necrosis after Peripheral Venous Perfusion of Adrenaline
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
A 30 year old female patient was hospitalized for septic shock owing to peritonitis due to perforated viscus. The patient’s hemodynamic status was labile and a peripheral venous access line was established for the perfusion of adrenaline due to difficulties in obtaining a central venous access line in the emergency setting. The peripheral venous access initially taken was changed thrice owing to subcutaneous extravasation of the vasopressin.
