Vecuronium neuromuscular block in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice.

when the infant demonstrated adequate tone and wakefulness. Upon arrival in the PACU, the infant's temperature was 36.4~ respiratory rate 30-35 per minute, heart rate 180-190 bpm, and the SpO2 was 100% breathing 0.4 FIO2. The infant's nurse, noting that the/v solution was not infusing, injected saline through an injection port. 'Approximately ten minutes later, the patient's cry began to weaken...

Neuromuscular effects of mivacurium in 2- to 12-yr-old children with burn injury.

BACKGROUND Burned patients are usually resistant to the neuromuscular effects of nondepolarizing relaxants, mostly because of receptor changes. The magnitude of the resistance is related to burn size and time after burn. Mivacurium is a muscle relaxant, degraded by plasma cholinesterase, whose enzyme activity is decreased in burns. The present study tested the hypothesis that burn-induced depre...

Neostigmine requirements for reversal of neuromuscular blockade following an infusion of mivacurium.

PURPOSE To study the efficacy of neostigmine compared with placebo for the antagonism of neuromuscular blockade at the end of a mivacurium infusion, and to determine its optimal dose. METHODS One hundred adult patients undergoing an elective surgical procedure received a standardized anaesthetic with 20-30 micrograms.kg-1 alfentanil, a propofol infusion and nitrous oxide. Muscle relaxation wa...

Omitting antagonism of neuromuscular block: effect on postoperative nausea and vomiting and risk of residual paralysis. A systematic review.

We have estimated the effect of omitting antagonism of neuromuscular block on postoperative nausea and vomiting. A systematic search (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Biological Abstracts, Cochrane library, reference lists and hand searching; no language restriction, up to March 1998) was performed for relevant randomized controlled trials. In eight studies (1134 patients), antagonism with neostigmine or edrop...

Effect of edrophonium and neostigmine on the pharmacokinetics and neuromuscular effects of mivacurium.

BACKGROUND Previous studies demonstrated that both edrophonium and neostigmine affect mivacurium's pharmacokinetics, thereby potentially affecting its recovery profile. However, those studies were not clinically relevant because mivacurium was still infused after the antagonists were given. In the present study, the authors gave antagonists (or placebo) after discontinuing a mivacurium infusion...
