Residual neuromuscular blockade following electroconvulsive therapy

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care
Post-procedural residual neuromuscular paralysis is an uncommon but serious complication in the general surgical population. Whilst the incidence of post-procedural residual neuromuscular paralysis in the general surgical population has been widely reported, there are no published data on the definition or incidence of this complication in patients ...

[Residual neuromuscular blockade].

Der Anaesthesist, 2018
Even small degrees of residual neuromuscular blockade, i. e. a train-of-four (TOF) ratio >0.6, may lead to clinically relevant consequences for the patient. Especially upper airway integrity and the ability to swallow may still be markedly impaired. Moreover, increasing evidence suggests that residual neuromuscular blockade may affect postoperative ...

Residual neuromuscular blockade in the immediate postoperative period

Journal of PeriAnesthesia Nursing, 2002
Neuromuscular blocking agents are among the most potent and dangerous drugs administered in the course of a general anesthetic. Their residual actions can have profound effects on a patient's ability to adequately ventilate. Understanding the basics of their actions and the methods of monitoring the level of neuromuscular blockade will assist the PACU ...

Neuromuscular block: Monitoring, reversal, and residual blockade in small animals

Veterinary Ophthalmology, 2023
AbstractNondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents are used frequently during ophthalmic surgery of dogs and cats. Residual neuromuscular block (NMB)—impaired neuromuscular function at recovery from anesthesia—is a main concern when these agents are used in small animals. In humans, residual NMB reduces the ability to protect the airway (swallow and

Counterpoint: Residual Neuromuscular Blockade in the PACU—A Continuing Serious Problem

Journal of PeriAnesthesia Nursing, 2010
SKELETAL MUSCLE WEAKNESS from residual neuromuscular blockade (NMB) is a significant cause of early adverse respiratory events in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). This finding from a recent study highlights a preventable cause of morbidity and significant discomfort in patients recovering from general anesthesia. Although this opens up the need for

Effects of Residual Concentrations of Isoflurane on the Reversal of Vecuronium-induced Neuromuscular Blockade

Anesthesiology, 1991
Thirty-six anesthetized patients (ASA physical status 1 or 2) undergoing elective surgery were monitored (isometric adductor pollicis mechanical activity) to detect the effects of discontinuing isoflurane anesthesia upon the reversal of vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade.
