Residual Paralysis: Does it Influence Outcome After Ambulatory Surgery? [PDF]
Current Anesthesiology Reports, 2014 Neuromuscular blocking agents are used to facilitate tracheal intubation in patients undergoing ambulatory surgery. The use of high-dose neuromuscular blocking agents to achieve muscle paralysis throughout the case carries an increased risk of residual post-operative neuromuscular blockade, which is associated with increased respiratory morbidity ...

Residual paralysis caused by 50 mg rocuronium after reversal with 4 mg/kg sugammadex: a case report. [PDF]
BMC Anesthesiol, 2021 Background Rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade can be quickly and completely reversed by administration of an optimal dose of sugammadex. Sugammadex antagonizes rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade by encapsulating rocuronium.

Postoperative Residual Neuromuscular Paralysis at an Australian Tertiary Children’s Hospital
Anesthesiology Research and Practice, 2015 Purpose. Residual neuromuscular blockade (RNMB) is known to be a significant but frequently overlooked complication after the use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA). Aim of this prospective audit was to investigate the incidence and severity of RNMB

Impact of normalizing the acceleromyographic train-of-four ratio on detecting residual paralysis-a cohort study. [PDF]
BMC AnesthesiolBackground Quantitative monitoring is recommended to prevent residual postoperative neuromuscular blockade. Guidelines advocate a train-of-four ratio ≥ 0.90 before extubation.

Hypokalemic periodic paralysis triggered by exertion and cold exposure in a resource-limited Ethiopian setting: a case report. [PDF]
J Med Case RepBackground Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is a type of periodic paralysis, a rare but life-threatening condition that can cause sudden onset weakness but can be reversed completely with early diagnosis and treatment.

Sugammadex and recurarization in an infant. [PDF]
Pediatric Anesthesia and Critical Care Journal (PACCJ), 2020 Sugammadex is a novel pharmacologic agent, which re- verses neuromuscular blockade via a mechanism that dif- fers completely from acetylcholinesterase inhibitors such as neostigmine.
