Thyroid storm: Is there a role for thyroid function test?
DISCUSSION: Plasmapheresis is considered in TS if there is no clinical improvement within 24-48 hours of initial treatment. The improvement in patient's TFT post plasmapheresis signifies its role in treating TS. Unfortunately, there was a delay in commencing plasmapheresis due to haemodynamic instability in this patient.
