Screening people who may be prone to malignant hyperthermia
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at people who had a dangerous anesthesia reaction called malignant hyperthermia during or after surgery. It may help teams figure out who might be at risk in the future so they can take safer steps next time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be having surgery under general anesthesia during the study time period
- During or after that surgery, you developed malignant hyperthermia
- Your treating team has not yet ruled out malignant hyperthermia as the cause
- The reaction was not later disproven by later diagnosis or treatment

This trial tests if carefully controlling body temperature after surgery can prevent confusion or slow thinking in older adults recovering from major cancer operations.
This trial tests whether actively managing your body temperature during a special cancer surgery (CRS-HIPEC) can help prevent confusion or delirium afterward. It is for people with a specific type of abdominal cancer called pseudomyxoma peritonei.
This study tests whether a temperature management system can safely raise your body temperature to fever levels in a controlled medical setting. Researchers want to understand how your body responds and ensure the procedure is safe for future use.
This registry study looks at whether adding hyperthermia (raising body temperature) is safe and effective for people with certain locally advanced, non-spread cancers. It will follow outcomes to help doctors understand who may benefit and what side effects to expect.
This trial tests whether carefully managing a patient's body temperature during cancer surgery can reduce the risk of postoperative delirium and improve long-term survival. It is for older adults undergoing major cancer surgery.
This study looks at how common low body temperature is during surgery and tests a tool to predict it. It may help your surgical team keep you warmer and safer.
