    Author: Tassonyi E, Labancz K, Vimláti L, Kiss I.
    Journal: Anaesthesist; 1976 Nov; 25(11):529-31. PubMed ID: 1008241.
    Abstract:
    Four patients developed postoperative apnoea after neuroleptanalgesia, and were given Nivalin whilst in an apnoeic state to reverse residual neuromuscular block. Neuromuscular transmission was monitored by a peripheral nerve stimulator, and recurarization was not observed. Central respiratory depression was the cause of postoperative apnoea. The possible mechanisms and the mode of prevention are stated in this paper.
