Pancuronium bromide induced joint contractures in the newborn.
We report three infants paralysed with pancuronium bromide as an adjunct to mechanical ventilation, who developed multiple joint contractures. In two term infants, gentamicin and phenobarbitone given together with pancuronium may have potentiated its effect, and in one preterm infant contractures, which became more severe after paralysis, were present at birth.
متن کاملMyocardial stimulation by pancuronium bromide.
The effect of pancuronium bromide on the canine myocardium was studied by observing several indices of myocardial contractility during i.v. and intracoronary infusion of the drug in an anaesthetized, open-chested dog preparation. Pancuronium produced tachycardia when given for 2 min by i.v. and intracoronary infusion with the heart intact. Following denervation and pacing of the heart the intra...
متن کاملComparative potency of pipecuronium bromide and pancuronium bromide.
Cumulative dose-response curves were constructed to determine the comparative potency of pipecuronium and pancuronium. From these, the ED50 and ED95 values were calculated. These were 24.96 micrograms kg-1 and 44.96 micrograms kg-1, respectively, for pipecuronium and 30.42 micrograms kg-1 and 61.12 micrograms kg-1, respectively, for pancuronium.
متن کاملTemporal gene expression profiling of the rat knee joint capsule during immobilization-induced joint contractures
BACKGROUND Contractures of the knee joint cause disability and handicap. Recovering range of motion is recognized by arthritic patients as their preference for improved health outcome secondary only to pain management. Clinical and experimental studies provide evidence that the posterior knee capsule prevents the knee from achieving full extension. This study was undertaken to investigate the d...
متن کاملJoint contractures and diabetic retinopathy.
It has been suggested that joint contractures may be an early marker of microangiopathy, especially retinopathy, in diabetic patients. To investigate this possibility, the prevalence of contractures of the finger joints, as assessed by the painted hand technique, was compared in 106 diabetic patients without, and 105 with retinopathy (proliferative in 66%). There was an increased prevalence of ...
