Influence of Neuromuscular Block on Mask Ventilation

February 19, 2020 updated by: Kreiskrankenhaus Dormagen

Influence of a Neuromuscular Block on Face Mask Ventilation Conditions During Induction of Anaesthesia

Difficult mask ventilation might lead to a life-threatening situation, if endotracheal intubation is also impossible and neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) inhibit spontaneous ventilation. However, controversies exist if NMBA improve or impede face mask ventilation. Therefore, the effect of NMBAs on mask ventilation is assessed in patients with predictors for difficult face mask ventilation.
