Continuous vecuronium infusion for prolonged muscle relaxation in children.
Facilitation of mechanical ventilation of the lungs using an infusion of vecuronium in 11 infants and children and four neonates in an intensive care unit is described. A loading dose of vecuronium of 0.1 mg.kg-1 was followed by an infusion at an initial rate of 0.1 mg.kg-1.hr-1. The infusion rate was adjusted to maintain a neuromuscular block of approximately 90% as assessed by the presence of...
متن کاملThenar muscle blood flow and neuromuscular effects of vecuronium in patients receiving balanced or isoflurane anaesthesia.
We have tested the hypothesis that isoflurane potentiates non-depolarizing neuromuscular block via an increase in muscle blood flow. Anaesthesia was induced with thiopentone 4-5 mg kg-1 in 30 adult male patients of ASA physical status I or II and was maintained with 70% nitrous oxide in oxygen supplemented with either a bolus dose of fentanyl 4 micrograms kg-1 followed by an infusion of 1 micro...
متن کاملDifferential effects of vecuronium on diaphragm and geniohyoid muscle in anaesthetized dogs.
We have examined the sensitivity of the geniohyoid, an upper airway dilating muscle, to vecuronium in 12 anaesthetized dogs undergoing mechanical ventilation of the lungs and compared it with that of the diaphragm. Dogs were allocated randomly to two groups: pentobarbitone alone (group 1, n = 7); pentobarbitone combined with 0.2 MAC (0.44%) of enflurane anaesthesia (group 2, n = 5). Supramaxima...
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 between the continuous infusion of vecuronium and the intermittent administration of pancuronium and vecuronium.
The neuromuscular blocking effects of repeated bolus injections of pancuronium, or vecuronium, and of the continuous infusion of vecuronium have been compared in 36 patients by means of evoked twitch tension. Groups I and II received a loading dose (0.075 mg kg-1) of pancuronium or vecuronium, respectively, followed by 0.015-mg kg-1 maintenance doses when twitch tension had recovered to 25% of ...
