Single pretreatment of remifentanil may reduce pain after propofol and rocuronium injection in rapid sequence induction [PDF]
BackgroundWe designed this double-blind, placebo-controlled study to compare the efficacy of remifentanil in reducing the pain of both propofol and rocuronium injection during rapid-sequence induction.MethodsNinety-five patients, scheduled for elective ...

Impact of high- versus low-dose neuromuscular blocking agent administration on unplanned 30-day readmission rates in retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery. [PDF]
Recent data shows that a neuromuscular block (NMB) induced by administration of high doses of rocuronium improves surgical conditions in certain procedures. However, there are limited data on the effect such practices on postoperative outcomes.

Effect of Priming Dose Rocuronium Use on Intubation Quality and Duration
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effects of priming dose application with rocuronium, considering ideal body weight (IBW), on intubation quality and duration during the use of rocuronium and vecuronium as neuromuscular blockers. Methods:

The effect of magnesium sulfate concentration on the effective concentration of rocuronium, and sugammadex-mediated reversal, in isolated left phrenic nerve hemi-diaphragm preparations from the rat [PDF]
Background Perioperative magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is used for analgesic, anti-arrhythmic, and obstetric purposes. The effects of MgSO4 on the neuromuscular blockade (NMB) induced by rocuronium, and the sugammadex reversal thereof, have not been clearly ...
