To determine pharmacodynamic effects and safety of mivacurium in paediatric patients. ⋯ Following 0.2 mg.kg-1 of mivacurium in patients aged between three months to eight years, a complete blockade occurs with a rapid onset time and a short duration of action, without significant cardiovascular effect.

To evaluate the success rate of intubation through the intubating laryngeal mask airway (LMA-Fastrach) in patients with predictive signs of difficult airway or after intubation failure. ⋯ The results of this study confirm that tracheal intubation through the intubating LMA can be recommended in patients with a difficult airway, whether foreseen or not.
