Neuromuscular blockade: electromyographic and mechanical versus visual interpretation.
Anesthetists frequently provide intraoperative muscle relaxation in addition to general anesthesia. However, visual interpretation of the effect of neuromuscular blocking drugs is not always possible. This study examined two alternative methods (electromyography/electrocardiography [EMG/ECG] and mechanical/ECG) of interpreting neuromuscular blockade and compared these methods to visual interpre...
متن کاملNeuromuscular blockade in children.
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) have been widely used to control patients who need to be immobilized for some kind of medical intervention, such as an invasive procedure or synchronism with mechanical ventilation. The purpose of this monograph is to review the pharmacology of the NMBAs, to compare the main differences between the neuromuscular junction in neonates, infants, toddlers and a...
متن کاملMonitoring neuromuscular blockade.
Neuromuscular-blocking agents (NMBA) have been used in clinical anesthesia for nearly 60 years. In the perioperative period, a variety of factors can influence a patient’s response to these drugs. To precisely titrate NMBAs to clinical effects in the anesthetized patient, the application of neuromuscular monitoring is essential. The use of a peripheral nerve stimulator allows the clinician to a...

متن کاملImproved neuromuscular blockade using a novel neuromuscular blockade advisory system: a randomized, controlled, clinical trial.
BACKGROUND Conventional incremental bolus administration of neuromuscular blocking (NMB) drugs is associated with limitations in intraoperative control, potential delays in recovery, and residual blockade in the postanesthetic period. To overcome such limitations, we developed a novel adaptive control computer program, the Neuromuscular Blockade Advisory System (NMBAS). The NMBAS advises the an...
