We report a case of emergence delirium after a propofol-based sedation for a renal biopsy in a teenager patient who had received high-dose and long-term corticosteroid treatment. Corticosteroid treatment is proposed as a possible risk factor for emergence delirium, although controlled studies are needed to assess this relationship. Although treatment for emergence delirium has not been well established, as described with steroid-induced psychiatric symptoms, antipsychotics could be a good therapeutic option.
我们报告了一例青少年患者在接受基于丙泊酚的肾活检镇静后出现谵妄的病例,该患者接受了大剂量和长期的皮质类固醇治疗。尽管需要对照研究来评估这种关系,但皮质类固醇治疗被认为是出现谵妄的一个可能危险因素。虽然针对谵妄的治疗尚未明确,正如类固醇诱导的精神症状所述,抗精神病药物可能是一种很好的治疗选择。
