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.

 * Bicarbonate soda
 * Diuretic
 * Surgical removal of dead muscles

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: Cesiumfrog (talk) 06:45, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

 * remove force gradually (e.g., over hours) stopping while ever the PT wave isn't visible.
