Reaction between parecoxib and vecuronium

Synergism between atracurium and vecuronium in children.

In 30 children under balanced anaesthesia, we have determined dose-response curves and maintenance requirement of three dose ratio combinations of atracurium and vecuronium (10:1, 4:1 or 1.6:1 on a microgram:microgram basis). Neuromuscular block was monitored by adductor pollicis EMG. An equipotent dose ratio (4:1) was most potent, with a mean (SEM) ED95 of atracurium 95 (6) micrograms kg-1 wit...

Comparison 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 ...

Parecoxib, valdecoxib, and cardiovascular risk.

Selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 1 depress prostacyclin (PGI2) but not COX-1–derived thromboxane A2. The effects of thromboxane A2 would be exaggerated during treatment with COX-2 inhibitors, potentially predisposing patients to heart attack and stroke.2 A randomized controlled trial in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and receiving either placebo or...

A Compari`Tive Study between Vecuronium and Rocuronium for Intubating Condition and Hemodynamic Changes

Background: Neuromuscular blockers (NMB) are very important for generalanesthesia, Rocuronium and Vecuronium are used as non-depolarizing muscle relaxants. In a randomized study we had compared both drugs as regard theonset of action, intubating condition and hemodynamic changes. Method:-Sixty patients ( 20 to 60 year), scheduled to undergo elective general surgery, were included in thisrandomi...
