investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Atracurium and intraocular pressure.
The effect of atracurium on intraocular pressure was studied by comparing it with pancuronium in a randomised controlled trial. The intraocular pressure was measured in patients undergoing cataract surgery before administration of the muscle relaxant, at 1, 3, and 5 minutes after its administration, and at 1 minute after tracheal intubation. Atracurium was found to decrease intraocular pressure...
متن کاملAnesthesiologist suicide with atracurium.
Atracurium is a nondepolarizing skeletal muscle relaxant used to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to induce skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. The drug undergoes a spontaneous non-enzymatic biotransformation, yielding laudanosine and an acrylate moiety. This report documents the case of a 45-year-old anesthesiologist who was found dead at the hospital whe...
متن کاملA new four-parameter threshold model for the plasma atracurium concentration-response relationship.
The plasma concentration of atracurium and the electromyographic depression of the first response of the train-of-four (T1:T0) were measured during and after recovery from a 10-min infusion of atracurium 0.25 mg kg-1 in 14 patients anaesthetized with 66% nitrous oxide and 0.9% isoflurane (end-tidal) in oxygen. A standard pharmaco-dynamic model was fitted to the data; a small but consistent disc...
متن کاملAtracurium or vecuronium for MHS patients?
CORRESPONDENCE ATRACURIUM OR VECURONIUM FOR MHS PATIENTS? Sir,—I am writing in regard to comments made by Hunter [1] in her review entitled "Adverse Effects of Neuromuscular Blocking Drugs ", on the use of vecuronium and atracurium in malignant hyperthermia-susceptible (MHS) patients. She states that "satisfactory use of both agents has been reported in patients susceptible to malignant hyperpy...
