Muscle relaxation with Norcuron in patients undergoing obstetrical-gynaecological operation.
The observations with Norcuron (Richter) injection used for muscle relaxation in the course of 204 obstetrical-gynaecological operations have been discussed. In the majority of cases Caesarean section was performed, the other interventions were major operations. Norcuron proved to be a neuro-muscular blocking agent which has no cardiovascular side-effects, has a medium duration of action, and may be repeatedly administered according to requirement without risk of cumulation. It may be combined with other anaesthetics, its action may be successfully antagonized, and the drug has no postoperative after-effects. The Apgar scores of the newborns remained within the normal ranges.
