Abstract:Atracurium during halothane anesthesia in humans. Anesth Analg 1983;62:207-10. The neuromuscular effects of atracurium were studied in 20 patients anesthetized with 0.8% end-tidal halothane. Neuromuscular blockade was monitored by recording the electromyogruphic activity of the adductor pollicis muscle resulting from stimulation of the ulnar nerve. Four groups offive patients received singleatracurium dosesof 0.1,0.15, 0.2, or 0.4 mglkg, respectively. The block produced by 0.1 mglkg was 25-72% and lasted 6-21 … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
