Article Synopsis
- Autonomic dysreflexia is a condition that happens in patients with spinal cord injuries, causing extreme responses due to stimuli below the injury site.
- An 11-year-old boy with a neurological condition experienced symptoms like facial flushing, sweating, high blood pressure, and rapid heart rate, which improved when his obstructed catheter was fixed.
- Recognizing autonomic dysreflexia quickly is crucial, as addressing the underlying trigger can be essential for the patient's safety and well-being.
