The nature of gentamicin-induced neuromuscular block.
نویسنده
چکیده
Gentamicin in concentrations of 0.05--0.2 mmol litre-1 blocked neuromuscular transmission in the toad sartorius nerve--muscle preparation by decreasing the release of transmitter. In concetnrations of 0.5--1 mmol litre-1 it decreased the amplitude of the miniature end-plate current by a curare-like action, without affecting the mean open channel lifetime.

Do bupivacaine, clindamycin, and gentamicin at their clinical concentrations enhance rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block?
BACKGROUND Bupivacaine, clindamycin, and gentamicin inhibit neuromuscular (NM) conduction. When they are combined, they may synergistically reduce the effective concentration of each to the therapeutic concentration in augmenting rocuronium-induced NM block. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate whether combinations of the three drugs, at around their therapeutic concentrations, potent...
متن کاملThe effect of high concentration of magnesium with ropivacaine, gentamicin, rocuronium, and their combination on neuromuscular blockade
BACKGROUND Magnesium, ropivacaine, gentamicin, and rocuronium block neuromuscular (NM) transmission by different mechanisms. Therefore, concurrent administration of these agents may induce prolonged muscle paralysis via synergistic interaction. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of NM block caused by the administration of high concentrations of magnesium in combination with ropivac...
متن کاملThe synergistic effect of gentamicin and clindamycin on rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade
BACKGROUND Gentamicin reduces acetylcholine release and clindamycin causes end-plate ion channel blockade. Because of these reasons, two drugs show muscular relaxant effect and potentiate the action of nondepolarizing neuromuscular agents. This study was intended to evaluate the effect of gentamicin and clindamycin on rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade and the interaction between these d...

Objective(s): Gentamicin belongs to the family of aminoglycoside antibiotics and is a preferred drug in developing countries because of its low cost, availability, and potent effects against bacterial. However, gentamicin can induce nephrotoxicity. In this research, hydroalcoholic extract of Rheum turkestanicum was used against gentamicin- induced nephrotoxicity. Rheum turkestanicum is used aga...
