Pharmacology of G-1-64, a new nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent with rapid onset and short duration of action.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Propofol has been used to facilitate tracheal intubation within a short time of sevoflurane induction without a muscle relaxant in children. We compared as the primary outcome the incidence of excellent intubating conditions after 8% sevoflurane and propofol 1 or 2 mg/kg. METHODS:One hundred and four patien...
