At therapeutic concentration bupivacaine causes neuromuscular blockade and enhances rocuronium-induced blockade
BackgroundPartially paralyzed patients may be placed in the risk of pharyngeal dysfunction. Bupivacaine acts as acetylcholine receptor ion channel blocker and may synergistically interact with rocuronium to augment NM blockade. Thus, this study aims to elucidate whether or not, at a therapeutic conc...
