Residual Paralysis after Emergence from Anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesAnesthesiology, 2010
SEVERAL studies have documented that neuromuscular block often persists in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), even with the administration of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. The frequency of this phenomenon, which has been called “residual curarization,” “residual neuromuscular block,” “postoperative residual curarization,” or “residual paralysis ...

Optimised reversal without train-of-four monitoring versus reversal using quantitative train-of-four monitoring: An equivalence study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2019
Background and Aims: Less residual paralysis in recovery room was demonstrated when train-of-four (TOF) monitoring was applied. The aim of this study was to know whether optimisation of neostigmine reversal without TOF monitoring was equivalent to ...
