Abstract
- The required doses of gallamine (nondepolarizing neuromuscular bloeker) were measured in twelve patients under one MAC anesthesia of nitrous oxide-oxygen(50%)-enflurane with inductions of sodium pentothal (sleeping doses) and succinylcholine(1mg/kg). It was observed that the required dose of gallamine in nitrous oxide-oxygen(50%)-halothane (36. 5+/-3.54mg/hr/M2) is much higher than that in nitrous oxide-oxygen(50%)-enflurane (18.0+/-2.48mg/hr/M2) (p<0.01) and reviewed literaturea on the above result.
