Clinical Pharmacology of the Neuromuscular Blocking Agents

, 1991
Neuromuscular blocking agents are among the most commonly used drugs during general anesthesia. They compete with acetylcholine and interfere with the transmission of nerve impulses resulting in skeletal muscle relaxation.

EFFECTS OF NON-DEPOLARIZING NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS ON THE CARDIAC VAGUS NERVE IN THE GUINEAPIG

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1980
The ability of gallamine, metocurine, pancuronium, tubocurarine and atropine to block the response to postganglionic stimulation of the vagus nerve were measured in isolated, spontaneously beating guineapig atria. From analysis of the results in conjunction with those of earlier assays of concentrations that block effects of preganglionic vagal ...

Biomimetic 3D Tactile Sensor System With Neuromorphic Encoding for Fascicle‐Level Feedback

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A 3D biomimetic tactile sensor system converts skin‐like mechanical interactions into neural stimulation‐ready spike patterns. Embedded slow‐ and fast‐adapting sensors distinguish sustained pressure from transient touch, while neuromorphic encoding preserves their temporal signatures.

Beyond the Camera: Epidermal Sensor Platforms for Intelligent Facial Expression Recognition and Interactive Human Monitoring

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Skin‐conformal epidermal sensors enable camera‐free intelligent facial monitoring by converting facial deformation and muscle activity into electrical signals through piezoresistive, capacitive, electrophysiologic, and self‐powered mechanisms. Coupled with artificial intelligence (AI), these platforms support facial expression recognition, human ...

EFFECTS OF NON-DEPOLARIZING NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS ON PERIPHERAL AUTONOMIC MECHANISMS IN CATS

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1976
Intravenous dose-response relationships were used to correlate neuromuscular paralysis with effects on autonomic mechanisms in anaesthetized cats. Whereas autonomic blockade with tubocurarine occurred at parasympathetic and sympathetic ganglia, neuromuscular paralysing doses of gallamine, alcuronium, pancuronium and fazadinium caused blockade at vagal ...

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

Neuromuscular blocking agents. Replacement of quaternary ammonium groups in bis-onium compounds by amidinium, guanidinium, thiouronium, sulphonium and sulphoxonium groups

, 1970
The quaternary ammonium groups of suxamethonium have been replaced by amidinium, guanidinium and thiouronium groups. The guanidine compound exhibited competitive neuromuscular activity of a low order of potency; the other compounds were ineffective ...
