Effect of cisatracurium versus atracurium on intraocular pressure in patients undergoing tracheal intubation for general anesthesia

Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2011
Background: Increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) following tracheal intubation during general anesthesia can be troublesome. We compared the influence of two muscle relaxants, cisatracurium and atracurium, on IOP in patients undergoing general ...

CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING ACTION OF ORG 9426, A NEW STEROIDAL NON-DEPOLARIZING AGENT

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1990
The neuromuscular blocking effects of Org 9426, the 2-morpholino, 16-allyl-pyrrolidino derivative of the 3-desacetoxy analogue of vecuronium have been investigated in anaesthetized patients. Based on data from a pilot study, two doses, 250 and 500 micrograms kg-1 (estimated as the ED90 and 2 x ED90, respectively) were chosen.
