Hjertestop induceret af vasospastisk angina pectoris efter vaginalt administreret misoprostol
Research output: Contribution to journal › Letter › Research › peer-review
A 41-year-old woman developed cardiac arrest after administration of misoprostol in order to induce an abortion. She was successfully resuscitated. Coronary angiography revealed coronary artery spasm which responded to nitroglycerine. Misoprostol is first-line treatment for medically induced abortion. Reports have described cardiovascular adverse events in women with cardiovascular risk factors, and clinicians should be aware of this.
