Neuromuscular Blockade Monitoring

Anesthesiology Clinics, 2021
Neuromuscular monitoring is essential for optimal management of neuromuscular blocking drugs. Postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade continues to occur with an unacceptably high incidence and is associated with adverse patient outcomes. Use of a peripheral nerve stimulator and subjective tactile or visual assessment is useful for intraoperative ...

Acidosis and Neuromuscular Blockade

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 1974
The effect of different types of acidosis on sensitivity to neuromuscular blocking agents was studied in vivo on the tibialis muscle of cats and in vitro in the phrenic nerve diaphragm preparation of the rat. In vivo metabolic acidification was caused by diffusion of weak organic acids, which penetrate easily into the cell and imitate closely the state

Neomycin-induced neuromuscular blockade

Urology, 1981
The unusual complication of neuromuscular blockade secondary to neomycin absorption is described. The syndrome characterized by acute muscle flaccidity, diaphragmatic breathing, and central nervous system depression presents a potentially fatal situation.

Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1991
Intelligent, safe use of muscle relaxants dictates that the clinician monitor neuromuscular function in all patients to determine each patient's sensitivity to relaxants. Restoration of muscle strength is a function of pharmacological antagonism of residual NMB, spontaneous recovery as the concentration of relaxant declines at the neuromuscular ...

Antagonism of Neuromuscular Blockade

Anesthesiology, 1976
Although acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are accepted antagonists of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockade, many basic questions are still unanswered. What is the relationship between receptor occupancy and adequate ventilation? What are the effects of changes in acid-base balance and temperature?

Monitoring neuromuscular blockade

Baillière's Clinical Anaesthesiology, 1994
The large variability in depth and duration of neuromuscular blockade following a given dose of a neuromuscular blocking agent makes it impossible to predict its effect in an individual patient. It is obviously desirable to monitor blockade to allow drug dosage to be titrated against the individual patient's response.
