  • Title: Priming studies with rocuronium and vecuronium.
    Author: Redai I, Feldman SA.
    Journal: Eur J Anaesthesiol Suppl; 1995 Sep; 11():11-3. PubMed ID: 8556997.
    Abstract:
    We studied the effects of rocuronium and vecuronium as priming agents before both vecuronium and rocuronium neuromuscular blockade. Rocuronium is ineffective at priming rocuronium. Vecuronium is effective at priming rocuronium, producing an approximate 33% reduction in onset time. Rocuronium and vecuronium, when given as priming agents, both reduce the onset time of vecuronium block.
