[Preventive action of pancuronium in cardiac rhythm disorders in children induced by administration of succinylcholine]. 1976

D Bucur

The author noted the development of tahycardia following the administration of succinylcholine, while repeated administration of the drug was followed by marked bradycardia in most of the children who received it. Administration of Pancuronium in amounts of 0,01 mg/kg of body weight, three minutes before the administration of succinylcholine resulted in the development of only very slight changes in the heart rhythm with a mean bradycardia of --0,7. Pancuronium was proved to provide prophylactic effects in rhythm disturbances occuring after intravenous reinjection of succinylcholine and this effect was superior to that obtained with d-tubocurarine.

D010197	Pancuronium	A bis-quaternary steroid that is a competitive nicotinic antagonist. As a neuromuscular blocking agent it is more potent than CURARE but has less effect on the circulatory system and on histamine release.

D013390	Succinylcholine	A quaternary skeletal muscle relaxant usually used in the form of its bromide, chloride, or iodide. It is a depolarizing relaxant, acting in about 30 seconds and with a duration of effect averaging three to five minutes. Succinylcholine is used in surgical, anesthetic, and other procedures in which a brief period of muscle relaxation is called for.
