INFLUENCE OF “PRIMING” ON THE POTENCY OF NON-DEPOLARIZING NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS
Dose-response curves have been constructed to determine the ED50 and ED95 (doses required to produce a 50% and a 95% block, respectively) following administration of a small "priming" dose of atracurium 50 micrograms kg-1, vecuronium 10 micrograms kg-1 or pancuronium 10 micrograms kg-1.
