decamethonium has been researched along with Myasthenia Gravis in 6 studies
decamethonium: RN given refers to parent cpd
decamethonium : A quaternary ammonium ion that is a depolarising muscle relaxant whose structure comprises a decane-1,10-diamine core in which each amino group carries three methyl substituents.
Myasthenia Gravis: A disorder of neuromuscular transmission characterized by fatigable weakness of cranial and skeletal muscles with elevated titers of ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTORS or muscle-specific receptor tyrosine kinase (MuSK) autoantibodies. Clinical manifestations may include ocular muscle weakness (fluctuating, asymmetric, external ophthalmoplegia; diplopia; ptosis; and weakness of eye closure) and extraocular fatigable weakness of facial, bulbar, respiratory, and proximal limb muscles. The disease may remain limited to the ocular muscles (ocular myasthenia). THYMOMA is commonly associated with this condition.

" The purpose of this paper is to indicate improvement in mortality and morbidity due to three major advances: (1) use of the decamethonium diagnostic test in a myasthenia gravis clinic; (2) improvements in assessment and management of respiratory insufficiency; and (3) avoidance of anticholinesterase treatment in the immediate and early postoperative recovery period." | 3.64 | MYASTHENIA GRAVIS: ANESTHETIC AND SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF THE PATIENT UNDERGOING THYMECTOMY. ( CHANG, J; JENKINS, LC; SAXTON, GD, 1965) |
"The diagnosis of myasthenia gravis is often difficult and calls for a broader use of pharmacological and electrodiagnostic tests." | 1.24 | MYASTHENIA GRAVIS: MEDICAL ASPECTS. ( BUCKLER, WS; ZELDOWICZ, LR, 1965) |
