The role of neuromuscular blockers in ARDS
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2012Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are part of the pharmaceutical arsenal employed to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, their use remains controversial because the potential benefits of these agents are counterbalanced by possible adverse effects.

Adverse Effects of Neuromuscular Blockers and Their Antagonists
Drug Safety, 1998Among all the drugs used for general anaesthesia, neuromuscular blockers appear to play a prominent role in the incidence of severe adverse reactions. It now seems likely that most serious adverse drug reactions occurring during anaesthesia are immunological in type.

The Place of Erythroidines in the History of Neuromuscular Blockers
Journal of Anesthesia History, 2019Between 1938 and 1951 erythroidine derivatives were seriously considered as alternatives to curare for the provision of muscle relaxation. This has been overlooked in the published history of anaesthesia. The first publication on the paralysing effect of an extract of Erythrina americana was in 1877, but this was in a Mexican journal, which was not ...

Review of neuromuscular blockers.
Compendium (Newtown, Pa.), 1991Neuromuscular blockers are primarily used as adjuncts in procedures requiring general anesthetics. Some agents have had a long, romantic history while others are relatively new or still in clinical trials. The following is a brief review of the history, mechanism of action, and potential adverse effects of neuromuscular blockers.

Neuromuscular Blockers and Reversal Agents
DeckerMed Anesthesiology, 2019Neuromuscular blocking drugs, which include depolarizing and nondepolarizing drugs, are used to facilitate intubation and provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery and in the intensive care unit. The agents differ in their mechanism, duration of action, side-effect profile, and metabolism.

New Vistas in Neuromuscular Blockers
2014The medication drawer of a modern anesthesiology workstation may contain up to five neuromuscular-blocking drugs (NMBs): succinylcholine, vecuronium, rocuronium, and possibly pancuronium and cisatracurium. With such an extensive armamentarium for providing muscle relaxation, why would an anesthesiologist require additional compounds?
