PRE-EMPTIVE GLYCOPYRROLATE 0.2 MG AND BRADYCARDIA DURING GYNAECOLOGICAL LAPAROSCOPY WITH MIVACURIUM
1998
: In a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, the effect of pre-emptive glycopyrrolate 0.2 mg given intravenously on the incidence of bradycardia in patients undergoing elective gynaecological laparoscopy with mivacurium neuromuscular blockade was investigated. Seven out of 32 (21.6%) control patients developed bradycardia (heart rate < 50 min-1), compared with 3 of 31 (9.6%) patients receiving glycopyrrolate (P = 0.4). Glycopyrrolate 0.2 mg, given immediately before induction in gynaecological laparoscopy with mivacurium, did not significantly reduce the incidence of intraoperative bradycardia.
