Do muscle relaxants influence vascular tone in isolated coronary artery segments?

abstract：CONTEXT:The single-use Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Supreme is a new supraglottic airway device. It has been reported to be reliable and easy-to-use in clinical practice; however, the anaesthetic techniques for its insertion are not standardised. OBJECTIVES:The purpose of this study was to determine the ED50 of end-tid...
