[Intracranial pressure response during secretion aspiration after administration of a muscle relaxant].

Unlabelled: Aspiration of secretions is a usual nursing technique in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation that may be the cause of increased Intracranial Pressure (ICP).

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the repercussion of a muscle relaxant on ICP with secretion aspiration.

Method: Clinical trial using the same patient as case and control, performing two endotracheal aspirations in each patients, on of them after administration of a muscle relaxant (Cis-Atracurium) and another no.
