Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of neostigmine administration on recovery from cisatracrium induced neuromuscular blockade. Methods Thirty-six patients(ASA Ⅰ and Ⅱ) were divided into three groups(each twelve),and received neostigmine 20,35 and 50 μg/kg respectively. Results The speed of recovery from cisatracurium-induced neuromuscular blockade with neostigmine 20 μg/kg was lower as compared with 35 μg/kg and 50 μg/kg,but the difference was not significant between with neostigmine 35 μg/kg and 50 μg/kg. Conclusions Recovery from cisatracurium-induced neuromuscular blockade was accelerated when dose of neostigmine was increased from 20 μg/kg to 50 μg/kg,35 μg/kg is the optimal dose of neostigmine for reversal of cisatracufium-induced neuromuscular blockade. Key words: Neostigmine; Cisatracurium; Muscle relaxation; Antagonists
