Preliminary studies with a neurotoxin obtained from Bungarus caeruleus venom
Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2006 The neurotoxin purified from the venom of Bungarus caeruleus causes a neuromuscular blockade on acetylcholine-induced muscle twitch response in isolated frog rectus abdominis muscle preparation.

Use of neuromuscular blockade for neck dissection and association with iatrogenic nerve injury
BMC Anesthesiology, 2023 Background Cranial nerve injury is an uncommon but significant complication of neck dissection. We examined the association between the use of intraoperative neuromuscular blockade and iatrogenic cranial nerve injury during neck dissection.

Perioperative and anesthetic deaths: toxicological and medico legal aspects [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Anesthesia has become safer during decades, though there is still a preventable mortality; the complexity of medical and surgical interventions, increasingly older and sicker patients, has created a host of new hazards in anesthesiology.

Clindamycin-induced neuromuscular blockade [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1995 The purpose of this article is to report the case of a patient who developed prolonged neuromuscular block after a large dose of clindamycin (2400 mg). A 58-yr-old, 65 kg woman with severe rheumatoid arthritis was admitted for wrist arthrodesis. After d-tubocurarine (3 mg) and fentanyl (1.5 micrograms.kg-1), anaesthesia was induced with thiopentone (4 ...

The binding of botulinum neurotoxins to different peripheral neurons [PDF]
, 2017 Botulinum neurotoxins are the most potent toxins known. The double receptor binding modality represents one of the most significant properties of botulinum neurotoxins and largely accounts for their incredible potency and lethality.

Sugammadex: Breaking Through Residual Paralysis after Neostigmine’s Limits [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic ResearchPersistent neuromuscular blockade following the use of Neuromuscular Blocking Agents (NMBAs) remains a significant postoperative concern, often resulting in delayed recovery and prolonged stays in the Post- Anaesthesia Care Unit (PACU).
