In this lecture Professor Kristin Beach, MSN, BSN, RN will be discussing Rhabdomyolysis. Rhabdomyolysis (often called rhabdo) is a serious medical condition that can be fatal or result in permanent disability. Rhabdo occurs when damaged muscle tissue releases its proteins and electrolytes into the blood. These substances can damage the heart and kidneys and cause permanent disability or even death. We hope you enjoy this lecture and be sure to support us below!
