Small doses of epinephrine prolong the recovery from a rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block: a case report

BMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background During anaesthesia it is not uncommon to administer epinephrine in patients blocked by non-depolarizing muscle relaxants. However, there are few reports on possible interaction of epinephrine with neuromuscular transmission in humans.

Anaphylactic reactions after cisatracurium administration in two patients -a report of two cases- [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013
Cisatracurium was initially characterized to have no evident histamine-releasing potential with excellent cardiovascular stability. However, severe anaphylactic reactions to cisatracurium that resulted in bronchospasms and cardiovascular collapse have ...

Comparison of the Effects of Sugammadex Recommended Dose (2 mg/kg) and Fixed Dose of 200 mg on the Reversal of Moderate Neuromuscular Block and Recovery Profile in Adult Patients

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Neuromuscular blocking agents are essential to ensure optimal surgical conditions during general anesthesia. Sugammadex, a selective binding agent, is widely used to reverse neuromuscular blockade.

Effects of avoiding neuromuscular blocking agents during maintenance of anaesthesia on recovery characteristics in patients undergoing craniotomy for supratentorial lesions: A randomised controlled study

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2017
Background and Aims: Neuromuscular blocking agents have been one of the cornerstones of anaesthesia. With the advent of newer surgical, anaesthetic and neurological monitoring techniques, their utility in neuroanaesthesia practice seems dispensable.

The effects of neuromuscular blocking agents in soft tissue balancing during primary total knee arthroplasty [PDF]

, 2016
We present a case of elective total knee arthroplasty where the surgical procedure was affected by the neuromuscular blocking agent administered at induction of general anaesthesia.

ClC-1 Inhibition as a Mechanism for Accelerating Skeletal Muscle Recovery After Neuromuscular Block in Rats

Nature Communications
Neuromuscular blocking agents are used commonly to induce skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery. While muscle relaxation facilitates surgical procedures and tracheal intubation, adequate recovery of muscle function after surgery is required to ...

Respiratory muscle activity after spontaneous, neostigmine- or sugammadex-enhanced recovery of neuromuscular blockade: a double blind prospective randomized controlled trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background The use of neostigmine after neuromuscular blockade (NMB) has been associated with postoperative respiratory complications. In previous studies, we found lower diaphragmatic activity after neostigmine reversal of NMB, compared to sugammadex ...

The Role of rescue therapies in the treatment of severe ARDS [PDF]

, 2018
ARDS is characterized by a non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema with bilateral chest radiograph opacities and hypoxemia refractory to oxygen therapy. It is a common cause of admission to the ICU due to hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring mechanical ...

Neuromuscular Blocking Agents

Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1958
Abstract The preparation of two further NSN-tris-ethonium compounds, 9-ethyl-9-thioniaheptadecylenebis(triethylammonium) triiodide (dioctasulphonium triethiodide; DOSE) and 11-ethyl-11-thioniaheneicosylenebis(triethylammonium) triiodide (didecasulphonium triethiodide; DDSE) is described.
