Use of Dexmedetomidine as an Adjuvant to Propofol along with Neurophysiological Monitoring of the Seventh Cranial Nerve during Cerebello- Pontine Tumour Excision Surgery [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Cerebello‑Pontine Angle (CPA) surgeries are very challenging for neurosurgeons as it lies very close to brain stem so various cranial nerves are at risk of damage. Generally, such surgeries require neuromuscular monitoring of various cranial nerves. For

The Role of Contraction Mode in Determining Exercise Tolerance, Torque-Duration Relationship, and Neuromuscular Fatigue [PDF]
Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, In press, Publish
Ahead of Print, 2023 Purpose: Critical torque (CT) and work done above it (W') are key predictors of exercise performance associated with neuromuscular fatigue. The aim of the present study was to understand the role of the metabolic cost of exercise in determining exercise tolerance, CT and W' and the mechanisms of neuromuscular fatigue.Methods: Twelve subjects performed ...
