Core Tip	Recent research has shown that a substantial proportion of patients with exercise-induced heatstroke harbor mutations in the ryanodine-receptor one gene on Chromosome 19 (RYR1), encoding for the principal calcium-release channel in striated muscle. These same mutations are known to result in a massively increased calcium-conductivity and life-threatening rhabdomyolysis when malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptible patients are exposed to volatile anesthetics during general anesthesia. In view of this, exposure to volatile anesthetic sedation - an emerging trend in intensive care units - is contraindicated, not only in patients with known MH susceptibility and other congenital myopathies, but also in patients admitted because of exertional rhabdomyolysis and heatstroke.
