Background Adequate muscle relaxation is important for ensuring optimal conditions for intubation. Although acceleromyography of the adductor pollicis muscle is commonly used to assess conditions for intubation, we hypothesized that acceleromyography of ...

How should we monitor pediatric patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy? -A case report- [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a hereditary disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness and contracture, and special care during anesthesia is needed in these patients.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease With Persistent Perioperative Hypotension due to Autonomic Dysfunction: A Case Report. [PDF]
Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) is a hereditary neuromuscular syndrome associated with peripheral neuropathy. We describe a case of long‐standing CMT disease who underwent general anesthesia for a total knee replacement and developed significant perioperative hypotension.

Background Drugs administered subcutaneously have delayed onset and prolonged duration of action versus those given intravenously. Since the duration of action of rocuronium is prolonged in patients with renal dysfunction, subcutaneous administration of ...

The effect of hand dominance on neuromuscular monitoring at the adductor pollicis muscle [PDF]
BackgroundNeuromuscular blockade of the adductor pollicis muscle may be influenced by hand dominance resulting in conflicting results of several studies.

Background Neuromuscular monitoring is recommended whenever a neuromuscular blocking agent is administered, but surveys have demonstrated inconsistent monitoring practices. Using qualitative methods, we aimed to explore barriers and aids to routine neuromuscular monitoring and consistent reversal practice.

Summary Timely application of objective neuromuscular monitoring can avoid residual neuromuscular blockade. We assessed the frequency of objective neuromuscular monitoring with acceleromyography and the last recorded train‐of‐four ratio in a cohort of Danish patients.
