Prolonged vecuronium neuromuscular blockade associated with Charcot Marie Tooth neuropathy.
Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) disease comprises a group of disorders characterized by progressive distal muscle weakness and wasting. Review of the anaesthetic literature produced conflicting reports concerning the responses to neuromuscular blocking drugs in these patients. We describe a case in which vecuronium 0.11 mg kg(-1) produced prolonged neuromuscular blockade lasting 115 min in a patient ...
متن کاملSustained Neuromuscular Blockade after Vecuronium Use in a Premature Infant
Background Prolonged use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) is very common in critically ill children both in pediatric and neonatal intensive care units. There are no guidelines available for use of NMBAs in children or neonates in the US, and the data for their safety in this age group is limited. Case Description Our case describes prolonged neuromuscular blockade following concurrent ...
متن کاملComparison of large dose of vecuronium with pancuronium for prolonged neuromuscular blockade.
Dose-duration relationships for vecuronium were determined and the duration of action produced by vecuronium 0.3 mg kg-1 shown to equal that of pancuronium 0.1 mg kg-1. Using these doses, the neuromuscular blocking properties and cardiovascular effects of the two drugs were compared. With large dose administration of vecuronium (0.3 mg kg-1), both the onset time (mean 81 s) and the 25-75% recov...

15 صفحه اولUse of neostigmine in the antagonism of residual neuromuscular blockade produced by vecuronium.
Recovery from neuromuscular block produced by vecuronium was studied in 50 patients using electromyography and the train-of-four technique. Twenty patients received neostigmine 2.5 mg, 10 when the initial response of the train-of-four was 50% of control and 10 when it was 10%. Neostigmine 5 mg was investigated in a similar manner and in 10 patients spontaneous recovery was studied. In all patie...
