Effects of muscle relaxants on ischaemia damage in skeletal muscle [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 Muscle ischaemia is frequently induced intraoperatively by i.e. a surgical tourniquet or during the re-grafting phase of a free muscle transplant. The resulting muscle cell damage may impact on postoperative recovery. Neuromuscular paralysis may mitigate

Evaluation of intubating conditions with varying doses of propofol without muscle relaxants
Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2011 Background: Since 1988 anaesthesiologist have proved that induction dose of propofol is sufficient to intubate patient without muscle relaxants. Propofol is unique in having property to suppress airway reflexes better than any other agent.

Muscle Relaxants Allergy [PDF]
International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2011 The most common agents that are responsible for intraoperative anaphylaxis are muscle relaxants. In fact, neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) contribute to 50–70% of allergic reactions during anaesthesia. The main mechanism of hypersensitivity reactions to NMBAs is represented by acute type I allergic reactions and the most severe form is ...

Estimation of the effect-site equilibration rate constant using the time-to-peak effect of muscle relaxants measured by train-of-four stimulation during general anesthesia induction [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2018 Background The concept of the effect-site concentration of anesthetic agents is important. The effect compartment model can be explained using the concepts of effect-site concentration and effect-site equilibration rate constant (ke0).

Biochemical, Anatomical, and Pharmacological Characterization of Calcitonin-Type Neuropeptides in Starfish: Discovery of an Ancient Role as Muscle Relaxants. [PDF]
Front Neurosci, 2018 Calcitonin (CT) is a peptide hormone released by the thyroid gland that regulates blood Ca2+ levels in mammals. The CT gene is alternatively spliced, with one transcript encoding CT and another transcript encoding the CT-like neuropeptide calcitonin-gene

Anaesthetic Management of a Patient with Myasthenia Gravis for Laparascopic Cholecystectomy: A Case Report [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019 Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease, which presents as fatigue and muscle weakness due to destruction of nicotinic receptors. Perioperative management of such patients is challenging due to altered pharmacology of drugs especially muscle relaxants
