Guidelines for selecting nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NNMBAs) were developed and implemented by an interdisciplinary team for use in our intensive care units. They suggest pancuronium as the drug of choice if the patient does not ha

Intravenous erythromycin has recently been associated with significant QTc interval prolongation, torsades de pointes, and sudden cardiac death. The prolonged the QTc interval attributed to erythromycin typically is associated with rapid infusion rat

Problems occurred with train-of-four (TOF) monitoring during prolonged therapy with nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NNMBAs). A previously healthy 25-year-old male with metastatic testicular teratocarcinoma was paralyzed with an atracur

A pattern of nerve stimulation called train-of-four (TOF) is frequently used to monitor therapy with nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents in patients treated in intensive care units. Based on our experience with TOF monitoring in several cri
