Influence of suxamethonium on the action of subsequently administered vecuronium or pancuronium.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects of suxamethonium were studied on the onset time and duration of action of vecuronium or pancuronium in 45 adult patients anaesthetized with halothane and nitrous oxide. After an intubating dose of suxamethonium, the force of the evoked twitch returned to a value greater than control. The onset of the reduction in force produced by subsequent administration of vecuronium or pancuronium was faster and recovery slower. This potentiating effect of suxamethonium persisted for at least 2 h.

Interactions of diisopropyl phenol (ICI 35868) with suxamethonium, vecuronium and pancuronium in vitro.
In vitro studies were performed using the rat phrenic nerve-hemidiaphragm preparation to investigate possible interactions between diisopropyl phenol and its solvent, cremophor, with three neuromuscular blocking drugs. Cumulative concentration curves were constructed for the neuromuscular blockers and linear regression analyses performed. Differences in the calculated effective concentration to...
متن کاملVecuronium induced bradycardia following induction of anaesthesia with etomidate or thiopentone, with or without fentanyl.
To define the role of vecuronium in the occurrence of bradyarrhythmia, haemodynamic changes after the induction of anaesthesia were studied in 96 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. Patients were assigned to one of six groups according to different combinations of induction agents (etomidate 0.3 mg kg-1 or thiopentone 3 mg kg-1, with fentanyl 0.003 mg kg-1; etomidate 0.4-0.5 mg...
متن کاملRate of onset of good intubating conditions, respiratory depression and hand muscle paralysis after vecuronium.
The development of neuromuscular blockade of the adductor pollicis muscle following vecuronium 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 mg kg-1, was compared with the development of intubating conditions and respiratory paralysis. From this relationship, the optimal time after injection required for ideal tracheal intubation was calculated for the three doses of vecuronium. The effects of these doses of vecuronium on...
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...
متن کاملIn vitro interaction of diazepam and oxazepam with pancuronium and suxamethonium.
In vitro studies using the rat phrenic nerve-hemidiaphragm preparation were performed to investigate the effects of diazepam and three of its metabolites on indirectly evoked twitch tension. Diazepam, desmethyldiazepam and temazepam alone caused an increase in twitch tension in lower concentrations, followed by complete depression in higher concentrations. Oxazepam did not cause an initial incr...
