Sugammadex versus neostigmine in pediatric patients: a prospective randomized study
Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2014 Background and objectives: Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors may cause postoperative residual curarization when they are used for reversal of neuromuscular blockade. Sugammadex reverses neuromuscular blockade by chemical encapsulation and is not associated

The Effect of Neuromuscular Blockade Reversal Agents on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients undergoing Femur Fracture Repair Surgery: A Retrospective Observational Study [PDF]
Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research, 2023 Background Femoral fracture repair surgery under general anesthesia is associated with postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). However, information on PPCs caused by residual neuromuscular blockade following perioperative use of neuromuscular ...

Residual Neuromuscular Blockade Affects Postoperative Pulmonary Function [PDF]
Anesthesiology, 2012 Abstract Background Residual neuromuscular blockade (RNMB) is known to be associated with respiratory complications in the postoperative period after muscle relaxant usage. The authors hypothesized that RNMB causes reductions in pulmonary function test (PFT) parameters in the immediate ...

Acceleromyography improves detection of residual neuromuscular blockade in children [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1996 To determine whether detection of residual blockade is improved by using the accelerograph. A secondary objective was to compare acceleromyographic measurements with those obtained by electromyography.In a prospective, randomized, double-blind investigation, 22 anaesthetized children were studied during recovery from neuromuscular blockade following 0 ...
