Síndrome de infusión por propofol: revisión de tema
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
El Propofol es un agente anestésico endovenoso usado ampliamente en la inducción y mantenimiento de anestesia, así como en sedación de pacientes en diferentes escenarios. Sus propiedades farmacocinéticas y farmacodinámicas hacen de este un medicamento ideal para el cuidado de pacientes críticos. Algunas de ellas, su rápido inicio de acción y recuperación tras suspender la infusión, además de la presencia de pocos efectos adversos, lo hacen favorable en ciertas condiciones clínicas (descenso de la Presión Intracraneana [PIC] en pacientes con Trauma Cráneo Encefálico [TCE]). Sin embargo, desde hace más de 20 años se han reportado casos en la literatura con respecto a la presencia de signos y síntomas comunes relacionados con la infusión de propofol a dosis mayores de 4 – 5mg/kg/h y por largos periodos de tiempo (>48hrs), como acidosis metabólica, disfunción cardiaca y renal, rabdomiolisis, hipertrigliceridemia e hipercalemia, que en conjunto son conocidos como Síndrome de Infusión de Propofol (SIP). Si bien esta patología es poco frecuente, es potencialmente fatal sin un diagnóstico y tratamiento oportuno. El presente artículo pretende dejar unos puntos claros sobre su fisiopatología, características clínicas, diagnóstico y tratamiento con base en la literatura actual.
