Small doses of epinephrine prolong the recovery from a rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block: a case report

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background During anaesthesia it is not uncommon to administer epinephrine in patients blocked by non-depolarizing muscle relaxants. However, there are few reports on possible interaction of epinephrine with neuromuscular transmission in humans.

The changing pattern of neuromuscular block [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1961
These studies on the disadvantages of succinyldicholine are not intended to detract from what is a most useful clinical relaxant. Nevertheless, they indicate the urgent necessity to find a short-acting non-depolarizing drug., At the meeting in Venice on muscle relaxants in 1958, just such a compound (namely “Compound 41”) was described, which appealed ...

Enhancing Maturation of Human Neuromuscular Organoids via Electrical Stimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A framework for on‐demand and non‐invasive exposure of human neuromuscular organoids (NMOs) to electrical stimuli is established to promote their maturation. The robustness and effectiveness of different stimulation regimes are evaluated via thorough characterization of organoid tissue structure and contraction capacity. Chronic electrical stimulation,
