Protamine sulfate is the only agent approved to reverse heparin-induced anticoagulation. As with any other drug, protamine has the potential to cause adverse effects that range from mild hypotension to potentially fatal events, such as noncardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE) and catastrophic pulmonary vasoconstriction. We report a case of NCPE after the administration of protamine to a patient undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery and discuss the diagnosis and management of this severe adverse event.
