چکیده

Clinical trials of the effectiveness of hexafluorenium (Mylaxen), as an extender of suxamethonium block, have been conducted in 645 administrations of halothane. No serious complications which could be attributed to the drug were encountered. Histamine release after the administration of hexofluorenium was not observed. In view of the extreme efficacy and the apparent safety of the method described, its further application is considered to be justified.

Hexafluorenium-suxamethonium interaction in patients with normal versus atypical cholinesterase.

The effect of hexafluorenium 0.3 mg/kg on the neuromuscular block of suxamethonium 0.1 mg/kg in a child with homozygote atypical plasma cholinesterase activity and in one of his normal brothers has been compared. In the normal child, hexafluorenium produced a marked potentiation of suxamethonium block, while partially antagonizing the block in the atypical homozygote child. In both situations, ...

Prevention of suxamethonium-induced changes in serum potassium concentration by hexafluorenium. Is their combined use justified?

Sixty patients, none of whom was suffering from renal failure, received neurolept anaesthesia. They were divided into six groups of 10 patients each. Groups I and IV, II and V, and III and VI were given suxamethonium 0.2, 0.6 and 1.0 mg kg-1 respectively. Groups IV-VI were pretreated with hexafluorenium 0.3 mg kg-1. The serum potassium concentration decreased significantly after the induction o...

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of atracurium with and without previous suxamethonium administration.

Suxamethonium increases neuromuscular block produced by non-depolarizing agents administered subsequently. To determine if this effect has a pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic origin, 18 ASA physical status I or II adults received atracurium 0.2 mg kg-1, with (n = 10) or without (n = 8) previous injection of suxamethonium 1 mg kg-1, during a thiopentone-nitrous oxide-isoflurane (0.5% end-tidal)...

Dose-response studies of the interaction between mivacurium and suxamethonium.

We have determined the effect of pretreatment with mivacurium on the potency of suxamethonium and the effect of prior administration of suxamethonium on the potency of mivacurium. We studied 100 ASA I or II patients during thiopentone-fentanyl-nitrous oxide-isoflurane anaesthesia. Neuromuscular block was recorded as the evoked thenar mechanomyographic response to train-of-four stimulation of th...

Seizure Action of Quaternary Ammonium Compounds Applied into Cerebrospinal Fluid of Dogs.

The fact that d-tubocurarine which had a strong action to block the transmission of neuromuscular function, in cold blooded animals as well as in mammarian, had an action to produce seizure when introduced into c.s.f. of mammals, was first discovered by Feldberg(1) and next, by Hayashi(2). How were the other blocking agents, for example, Flaxedil or Hexafluorenium? We tested these and many othe...
