  • Title: Succinylcholine-induced ventricular fibrillation in the paralyzed urology patient.
    Author: Walker DE, Barry JM, Hdoges CV.
    Journal: J Urol; 1975 Jan; 113(1):111-3. PubMed ID: 1113381.
    Abstract:
    A myelotomy patient with succinylcholine-induced hyperkalemia and ventricular fibrillation was succesfully resusciated. The urologist and anesthetist can prevent this problem by using non-depolarizing muscle relaxants in patients with denervated skeletal muscle.
