Overview

Life threatning causes of hyperthermia include diabetic ketoacidosis, heat stroke, malignant hyperthermia, and septic shock. Other common causes of hyperthermia are amphetamine, cocaine, monoamine oxidase inhibitors and Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Causes

• Heat stroke
• Malignant hyperthermia
• [[Sepsis|Neonatal sepsis}]
• Septic shock

Common Causes

• Amphetamine
• Cocaine
• Monoamine oxidase inhibitors
• Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
• Tricyclic antidepressants
