Title: Failure of neostigmine to prevent tubocurarine neuromuscular block in the isolated arm. Author: Feldman SA, Agoston S. Journal: Br J Anaesth; 1980 Dec; 52(12):1199-1203. PubMed ID: 6255977. Abstract: Neostigmine failed to modify the development of neuromuscular block in the presence of a high local concentration of tubocurarine. Only when the concentration of tubocurarine was reduced, and a suitable concentration gradient established between the receptor area and the plasma, did neostigmine increase the rate of recovery from the action of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
