title: [The non-depolarizing myorelaxants in orotracheal intubation. A clinical comparison].
abstract: The present study was designed to compare the rapidity of onset of neuromuscular blockade after administration of 5 different neuromuscular relaxants (succinylcholine, d-tubocurarine, pancuronium, atracurium and vecuronium) in 75 patients, randomly allocated in 5 treatment groups. The facilitation for endotracheal intubation was evaluated using a clinical score. The for onset relaxation was shorter when using succinylcholine. Among non-depolarizing relaxants an adequate facilitation for endotracheal intubation was observed, two minutes after administration of atracurium and vecuronium, while endotracheal intubation was difficult when using d-tubocuranine and pancuronium.
