Malignant Hyperthermia is a rare genetic condition characterized by a severe hypermetabolic state and rigidity of the skeletal muscles. It occurs when affected individuals are exposed to a triggering agent such as inhalation anesthetics and succinylcholine, a depolarizing muscle relaxant. The triggering agent causes a series of chain reactions in the body related to an increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration.
