Role of Neuromuscular Junction Monitoring in Management of a Postpartum Eclamptic Patient with Iatrogenic Hypermagnesemia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Indian Anaesthetists' Forum, 2010
Accidental hypermagnesemia is a common and often missed complication during treatment in a postpartum eclamptic patient. As symptomatic hypermagnesemia leads to neuromuscular junction blockade, neuromuscular junction monitoring serves the purpose of ...

A surgeon′s assessment of inadequate neuromuscular antagonism in a case of prolonged neuromuscular blockade

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Evaluation of the degree of neuromuscular blockade by the surgeon using clinical criteria alone is unreliable. We report a case of prolonged neuromuscular blockade lasting 5.5 h, where an additional intra-operative dose of neuromuscular relaxant was ...

Neuromuscular monitoring and its importance in neuromuscular blockade☆

open access: yesColombian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012
Introduction: The incorporation of new guidelines or strategies as part of good practices in the use of muscle relaxants is not a requirement at present in the practice of anesthesia. There are only action recommendations designed to persuade clinicians of the fact that neuromuscular monitoring is a very useful tool for the rational use of muscle ...
