 The renal changes were due to methohemoglobin infarction, resulting ...

Am I wrong or is the word called Methemoglobin? Martin schilliger (talk) 12:59, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Occurance?

I just asked about this syndrome and I have been told that this can occur if someone falls unconscious on a limb, or even breasts. It's not really happening during sleep because the tingling sensation makes you turn over. In hospital, patients are positioned so no such thing happens.

Maybe a little note about this in the article would be nice, even without a source, just slap a citation needed tag. -64.254.244.103 (talk) 16:00, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

Disease?

It should not be categorized under disease. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.228.95.143 (talk) 04:35, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it should. Please see Disease. Although in common parlance it's considered synonymous with infection, disease is technically an abnormal state generally distinguished by discrete signs and symptoms. It's semantic construction of dis-ease reflects this. RayBarker (talk) 00:17, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Treatment?

• Bicarbonate soda
• Diuretic
• Surgical removal of dead muscles

if you think bicarb and a nice cup of coffee will fix symptoms like renal failure, good luck with that, but don't put it in the article until you can reference a peer-reviewed medical article, please. RayBarker (talk) 02:06, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

In the intro paragraph permissive hypotension is listed as the prehospital standard, but under the treatment category it's mentioned as "unwise"

development of current proceedures

I understand that after analysis of the Granville rail disaster (prior to which it was widely not understood why some people died when freed) the proceedure became:

• free ASAP within first few minutes, or
• remove force gradually (e.g., over hours) stopping while ever the PT wave isn't visible.
