Background: Quantitative train-of-four (TOF) monitoring remains essential in optimizing anesthetic outcomes by assessing the depth and recovery from neuromuscular blockade. Despite this, residual neuromuscular blockade, defined as a TOF ratio

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 ...

Rocuronium-Sugammadex in Anesthesia for Electroconvulsive Therapy [PDF]
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a form of treatment which is very effective in many psychiatric disorders. The administration of anesthesia plays a positive role in the success of ECT and improves the oxygenation of the body during the process ...

The dose response effect of long-acting nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents in children [PDF]
Cumulative dose-response curves were constructed for pancuronium, metocurine, d-tubocurarine and gallamine in 56 children anaesthetized with thiopentone, N2O/O2 and narcotic. The dose response curves of the four relaxants did not deviate significantly from parallelism.

The effect of intravenous paracetamol for the prevention of rocuronium injection pain
Rocuronium is a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent used in anesthesia induction and is associated with considerable discomfort and burning pain during injection, which is reported to occur in 50–80% of patients.

The synergistic effect of gentamicin and clindamycin on rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade [PDF]
BackgroundGentamicin reduces acetylcholine release and clindamycin causes end-plate ion channel blockade. Because of these reasons, two drugs show muscular relaxant effect and potentiate the action of nondepolarizing neuromuscular agents.

Pro-Con Debate: Do We Need Quantitative Neuromuscular Monitoring in the Era of Sugammadex?
In this Pro-Con article, we debate the merits of using quantitative neuromuscular blockade monitoring. Consensus guidelines recommend their use to guide the administration of nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockade and reversal agents.

Comparison of etomidate and propofol on intubating conditions and the onset time associated with cisatracurium administration [PDF]
BackgroundThis study compared intubating conditions and the onset time associated with administration of cisatracurium, a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocker with a relatively slow onset, according to prior injection of one of two intravenous ...
