摘要
Objective: To report intense green hyperpigmentation related to FD & C Blue No. 1. Design: Retrospective case review. Setting: Surgical intensive care unit. Patient. A 67-yr-old woman with unstable angina, electrocardiographic S-T segment elevation, and a left ventricle thrombus requiring emergent coronary revascularization surgery. Interventions: Postoperative monitoring and treatment for multiple organ dysfunction that included small-bowel tube feeding and propofol sedation. Measurements and Main Results: The patient developed an intense green skin color. Conclusion: Patients with multiple organ failure may be at risk for unusual pigmentation effects from tube feeding dyes.
