In course of the anaesthesia of orthopaedic and general surgery operations, the author administered Norcuron injection in 80 cases for the purpose of intubation and/or surgical myorelaxation. On account of the observation of the usual parameters, he found Norcuron to be a product meeting the expectations, furnishing myorelaxation of medium length that did not cause adverse alterations, in circulation neither did it have other unpleasant side- or after-effect. The author applied a so-called priming dose system by which the time required for intubation could be appreciably shortened. He recommends this procedure to others, too.

Objectives: Organ transplant in humans is an established therapy for a variety of end-stage organ diseases. However, due to organ shortages and lack of donors, the need for xenotransplant has gradually increased. Xenotransplantation has great potential to solve many of the problems facing organ transplantation.

The patient was a 17-year-old female (height : 166 cm, weight : 46 kg). During general anesthesia at another hospital several years ago, she had an anaphylactic shock, and rocuronium was suspected to be the offending drug.

In vivo administration results in immediate encapsulation of rocuronium and vecuronium, resulting in termination of neuro- muscular blockade, usually within 3 minutes. This new neuromuscular blocking agent is specific for the aminosteroidal neuromuscular blocking agents rocuronium and vecuronium.

Background: Effect on hemodynamic changes and experience of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) in steep Trendelenburg position (45°) with high-pressure CO(2) pneumoperitoneum is very limited. Therefore, we planned this prospective clinical trial to study the effect of steep Tredelenburg position with high-pressure CO(2) pneumoperitoneum on hemodynamic parameters in a patient undergoing RALRP using FloTrac/Vigileo™1.10.
