Since the 1980s, methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) has been a popular recreational drug, used particularly among those who attend raves and nightclubs. Over the past 3 years, the popularity of this drug has once again increased and there has been an associated rise in deaths. The pathophysiology of MDMA toxicity is complex and much remains to be understood. This article aims to increase readers' knowledge of patient presentations, the pathophysiology behind life-threatening toxicity, current treatments and the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a potential future treatment.
自20世纪80年代以来，亚甲二氧基甲基苯丙胺（摇头丸）一直是一种流行的消遣性毒品，尤其在参加锐舞派对和夜总会的人群中使用。在过去3年里，这种毒品的受欢迎程度再次上升，死亡人数也随之增加。摇头丸毒性的病理生理学很复杂，仍有许多有待了解。本文旨在增加读者对患者表现、危及生命毒性背后的病理生理学、当前治疗方法以及体外膜肺氧合作为未来潜在治疗方法的使用的了解。
