succinylcholine and Seizures

succinylcholine has been researched along with Seizures in 62 studies

Succinylcholine: A quaternary skeletal muscle relaxant usually used in the form of its bromide, chloride, or iodide. It is a depolarizing relaxant, acting in about 30 seconds and with a duration of effect averaging three to five minutes. Succinylcholine is used in surgical, anesthetic, and other procedures in which a brief period of muscle relaxation is called for.
succinylcholine : A quaternary ammonium ion that is the bis-choline ester of succinic acid.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

Optimal Control of Muscle Strength for Electroconvulsive Therapy: A Comparison of Succinylcholine Versus Rocuronium-induced Neuromuscular Blockade[NCT01441960]45 participants (Actual)Interventional2011-05-31Completed
[information is prepared from clinicaltrials.gov, extracted Sep-2024]

Trial Outcomes

Compound Specific Differences in Time to Recovery From Neuromuscular Blockade

The investigators defined the compound specific differences in time to recovery from neuromuscular blockade - i.e., recovery of spontaneous breathing and recovery of the twitch height to baseline. (NCT01441960)
Timeframe: Up to six weeks following inclusion

Interventionminutes (Mean)
Succinylchline9.7
Rocuronium19.5

Differences in Seizure Duration Between Compounds

Observational reports suggest that differences in seizure duration might exist depending on the neuromuscular blocking agents used to accomplish muscle strength control during ECT. (NCT01441960)
Timeframe: Up to six weeks following inclusion

InterventionSeconds (Mean)
Succinylcholine27
Rocuronium31

Optimal Dose of Neuromuscular Blocking Agent During ECT

The optimal dose of muscle neuromuscular blocking is defined as the lowest dose of either compound that predicts 'acceptable' control of muscle strength during ECT. Assessment of the primary end point is based on a dichotomous scale 'acceptable' and 'not acceptable' control of muscle strength during ECT, and the two assessors will be blinded to the dose of neuromuscular blocking agent. The optimal dose was identified for each subject, and results were reported as the average of all lowest doses collected in the study. (NCT01441960)
Timeframe: Up to six weeks following inclusion
