Successful prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation after intraoperative cardiac arrest due to povidone-iodine allergy: A case report.
World Journal of Clinical Cases 2021 November 27
BACKGROUND: Iodophor (povidone-iodine) is widely used clinically because of its broad-spectrum antibacterial effects. Although extremely rare, it may cause anaphylactic shock, which itself carries the life-threatening risk of cardiac arrest.
CASE SUMMARY: We present a case in which a patient with postoperative infection went into anaphylactic shock and cardiac arrest caused by povidone-iodine during secondary surgery. The patient was successfully resuscitated by 2 h of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
CONCLUSION: This is the first known case of cardiac arrest caused by povidone-iodine allergy.
