AbstractThe electromyographic and hemodynamic profile and side effects of the new nondepolarizing myorelaxants Mivacurium chloride (Mivacron), Cisathracurium besilate (Nimbex), Rocuronium bromide (Esmerone) were studied in 117 adult patients. All the test myorelaxants as bolus or infusion in a dose of 3.ED95 were found to be effective in creating adequate conditions for tracheal intubation and neuromuscular block (NMB) maintenance during operations on the coronary arteries and cardiac vales under extracorporeal circulation. In terms of the onset rate of NMB, Esmerone is the drug of choice for tracheal intubation. Esmerone and Nimbex in a dose of 3.ED95 did not produce a noticeable hemodynamic effect. The former was found to have a slight vagolytic effect. When rapidly injected as bolus, Mivacron caused a significant decrease in blood pressure and heart rate by 10-12%. Based on a comprehensive study, the authors have scientifically substantiated principles in the choice of nondepolarizing myorelaxants in cardiac surgical patients in relation to the baseline hemodynamic values, the stage of an operation, and the duration of artificial pulmonary ventilation.
