Simultaneous Modeling of In Vivo and In Vitro Effects of Nondepolarizing Neuromuscular Blocking Drugs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs (NDNBs) are clinically used to produce muscle relaxation during general anesthesia. This paper explores a suitable model structure to simultaneously describe in vivo and in vitro effects of three clinically used NDNBs, cisatracurium, vecuronium, and rocuronium. In particular, it is discussed how to reconcile
