Article Synopsis
- A 72-year-old woman needed a total knee replacement but developed low sodium levels due to an Addisonian crisis after surgery, requiring intensive care.
- Upon review, it was discovered she had been using a strong topical steroid cream, clobetasol, for the past two years, which she hadn’t mentioned.
- The authors emphasize the critical need for healthcare providers to specifically inquire about patients' use of topical steroids, as stopping them suddenly before surgery can lead to severe complications.
