Onset time, duration of action, and intubating conditions after mivacurium in elderly and younger patients

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 898-905, August 2024.
Abstract Background The neuromuscular blocking agent mivacurium can be used during anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation. Data on onset time, duration of action, and effect on intubating conditions in patients 80 years and older are however limited.

Characteristics of neuromuscular block after administration of rocuronium bromide in patients with end-stage renal failure [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2011
Introduction. Anaesthesia affects kidney function by reducing the renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. As chronic renal failure (CRF) significantly influences drug metabolism and elimination, we studied the effects of rocuronium bromide ...

Neuromuscular blockade of atracurium in permissive hypercapnic versus normocapnic swine undergoing laparoscopy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are commonly used in experimental laparoscopy in swine undergoing carbon dioxide pneumoperitoneum. Hypercapnia may be present and may prolong NMBAs' pharmacologic activity.

Acceleromyography at the Flexor Hallucis Brevis Muscle Underestimates Residual Neuromuscular Blockade [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Anesthesiology Journal, 2013
Purpose: Recovery of the train-of-four ratio (TOFR) to > 0.9 in the upper limb is commonly used to determine that neuromuscular function has returned to the preoperative level. It is not known whether recovery of neuromuscular function can be determined in the same way using lower limb acceleromyography.

Comparison of onset time, duration of action, and intubating conditions after cisatracurium 0.15 mg/kg in young and elderly patients

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Introduction Tracheal intubation during anesthesia can be facilitated by the neuromuscular blocking agent cisatracurium. However, limited data exists about onset time, duration of action and effect on intubating conditions in elderly patients above 80 ...

Comparison of the effects of neostigmine and sugammadex on postoperative residual curarization and postoperative pulmonary complications by means of diaphragm and lung ultrasonography: a study protocol for prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2022
Background Postoperative residual curarization (PORC) may be a potential risk factor of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), and both of them will lead to adverse consequences on surgical patient recovery. The train-of-four ratio (TOFr) which is

Comparison of sugammadex and neostigmine–atropine on intraocular pressure and postoperative effects

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016
During surgery, changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) can be observed resulting from several factors, such as airway manipulations and drugs used. We aimed to investigate the effects of sugammadex and neostigmine on IOP, hemodynamic parameters, and ...

Sugammadex and Acceleromyography Used During a Lensectomy in a Sea Lion

open access: yes
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are essential in intraocular surgeries to improve surgical conditions and ensure optimal ventilation. However, residual blockade can pose significant risks, particularly in pinnipeds due to their unique diving physiology. This case report examines the use of sugammadex for reversing the effect of rocuronium and the

Usefulness of intra-operative neuromuscular blockade monitoring and reversal agents for postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade: a retrospective observational study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Complete avoidance of residual neuromuscular blockade (RNMB) during the postoperative period has not yet been achieved in current anesthesia practice.
