Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Details are given of 25 severely ill patients in whom atracurium was used to produce neuromuscular blockade. In view of the good operating conditions and absence of effects on the cardiovascular system it is concluded that atracurium is an excellent nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent for use in the severely ill, and the elderly.
