Nondepolarizing Neuromuscular Blocking Agents
2017Neuromuscular blocking medications are an important part of the anesthetic management of many patients undergoing surgery. These drugs act at the neuromuscular junction on postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors. Muscle relaxants can be divided into depolarizing and nondepolarizing categories. Succinylcholine is the only depolarizing neuromuscular blocker

Background Newborn neuromuscular junctions are more sensitive to d-tubocurarine than more mature preparations. It is unclear whether the same modifications occur with newer nondepolarizing agents and depolarizing agent succinylcholine.

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 1996
Guidelines for selecting nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NNMBAs) were developed and implemented by an interdisciplinary team for use in our intensive care units. They suggest pancuronium as the drug of choice if the patient does not have renal insufficiency and is hemodynamically stable. If either of these criteria is not met and hepatic

The kinetics of the inhibition of human plasma cholinesterase (ChE) and erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by alcuronium, atracurium, d-tubocurarine, pancuronium, pipecuronium, and vecuronium were studied in blood drawn from 35 surgical patients.The activities of plasma ChE and erythrocyte AChE were determined by the calorimetric method of Ellman ...

An analytical pharmacodynamic model for nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents
Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Biopharmaceutics, 1981A pharmacodynamic model for nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) is developed and tested with different sets of data (NMBA plasma concentration and time evolution of muscular paralysis). This model takes into account the binding of NMBA to the cholinergic motor endplate receptors and thus permits estimation of the apparent equilibrium ...

AbstractBackground:We tested the hypothesis that neostigmine reversal of neuromuscular blockade reduced the incidence of signs and symptoms of postoperative respiratory failure.Methods:We enrolled 3,000 patients in this prospective, observer-blinded, observational study.

AbstractBackgroundA shortâacting depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA), succinylcholine, has been utilized for thyroid operations with intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM). Because of its potential to cause serious side effects, this prospective study tried to determine the feasibility of IONM after administration of a nondepolarizing NMBA ...

It is readily evident that a short-acting nondepolarizing agent suitable for clinical use would be of value in anesthesiology. The most commonly used short-acting relaxant, succinylcholine, is a depolarizing drug, with all the side effects inherent in such agents.

T HE INTRODUCTION of muscle relaxants into clinical anesthesia had an enormous impact on the possibilities of the surgical treatment of patients. The development of cleaner and shorteracting nondepolarizers with a benzylisoquinoline or a steroidal chemical structure further improved clinical anesthesia.

The effects of the nondepolarizing agent pancuronium and three derivatives on end-plate currents (e.p.c.s), evoked by neural stimulation at the amphibian neuromuscular junction, were investigated using conventional voltage clamp techniques. All four agents depressed peak e.p.c.
