Influence of halothane on the train-of-four fade after atracurium in children.

abstract：:Although well established in clinical practice, both propofol and midazolam have limitations. New hypnotics with different and potentially superior pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are under development. These include the benzodiazepine receptor agonists CNS7056 and JM-1232 (-), the etomidate-based methoxycarbony...
