Dexmedetomidine use in the pediatric intensive care unit has increased in recent years. Reports of dexmedetomidine-associated drug fever have been described in adult patients; however, this has not been reported in the pediatric population. We report a case of persistent fever that resolved with the discontinuation of dexmedetomidine and successful transition to clonidine. This is the first report of dexmedetomidine drug fever in a pediatric patient.
近年来,右美托咪定在儿科重症监护病房的使用有所增加。在成年患者中已有右美托咪定相关药物热的报道;然而,儿科患者中尚未有此类报道。我们报告一例持续发热病例,停用右美托咪定并成功换用可乐定后发热消退。这是儿科患者中右美托咪定药物热的首例报道。
