Neuromuscular Monitoring of Rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg in Children Aged 3-24 Months With Electromyography and Acceleromyography: An Observational Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Objective neuromuscular monitoring is essential to prevent residual neuromuscular block in patients receiving neuromuscular blocking agents. However, the small size of pediatric hands and the lack of appropriately sized neuromuscular equipment have made quantitative neuromuscular monitoring at the ulnar nerve (UN) difficult. In such

Intravenous infusion of rocuronium bromide prolongs emergence from propofol anesthesia in rats.
BackgroundNeuromuscular blocking agents induce muscle paralysis via the prevention of synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction and may have additional effects at other sites of action. With regard to potential effects of neuromuscular blocking
