A comparative study of the orbicularis oculi muscle to the adductor pollicis muscle during vecuronium neuromuscular blockade.

چکیده
This study compared the orbicularis oculi muscle to the adductor pollicis muscle during vecuronium blockade. The orbicularis oculi muscle was found to be more resistant to and recovered from vecuronium neuromuscular blockade faster than the adductor pollicis muscle. Thus, caution should be utilized when assessing neuromuscular block with the orbicularis oculi muscle.

Neuromuscular monitoring at the orbicularis oculi may overestimate the blockade in myasthenic patients.
BACKGROUND In most publications about myasthenia, monitoring neuromuscular blockade during anesthesia is recommended. In healthy patients, the relation of blockade between muscles has been established, but there is little information about the relation in myasthenic patients. Our objective was to investigate whether the relation between the orbicularis oculi and adductor pollicis muscles is the...

Purpose: The aim of the study was to compare visual estimation of onset of neuromuscular blockade at both the adductor pollicis (AP) and the orbicularis oculi (OO) in children and to determine if monitoring the OO could predict good intubating conditions dunng vecuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. Methods: Thirty ASA I II children (1,5-9 yr) were studied. Anaesthesia was induced with 6-8 m...
متن کاملBlood flow and mivacurium-induced neuromuscular block at the orbicularis oculi and adductor pollicis muscles.
We have studied the pattern of blood flow and pharmacodynamic profile of mivacurium-induced block at the adductor pollicis and orbicularis oculi muscles. We studied 30 adult patients anaesthetized with fentanyl, thiopentone, nitrous oxide-isoflurane, and mivacurium 0.2 mg kg-1. Neuromuscular transmission was monitored with accelerometry (TOF Guard, Biometer, Denmark). Blood flow was measured at...
متن کاملSimultaneous determination of neuromuscular block at the larynx, diaphragm, adductor pollicis, orbicularis oculi and corrugator supercilii muscles.
We simultaneously determined the neuromuscular blocking effect of mivacurium 0.2 mg kg(-1) at five muscles in 20 women undergoing gynaecological surgery. Evoked electromyographic responses were obtained using surface electromyography (EMG) at the adducting laryngeal muscles, the diaphragm (lateral to vertebrae T12/L1 or L1/L2) and the adductor pollicis muscle and acceleromyographic (AMG) respon...
متن کاملNeuromuscular blockade by vecuronium during induction with 5% sevoflurane or propofol.
This randomized trial investigated whether 5% sevoflurane potentiated neuromuscular blockade by vecuronium. General anaesthesia was induced with 5% sevoflurane in oxygen in 16 patients or with propofol in 16 patients. After loss of consciousness, vecuronium was administered to all participants at randomly assigned doses of 25, 30, 35 or 40 μg/kg. Neuromuscular blockade was assessed by use of ac...
