Effects of neuromuscular blocking agents on central respiratory chemosensitivity in newborn rats

Effects of neuromuscular blocking agents on central respiratory chemosensitivity in newborn rats

Neuromuscular blocking agents suppress central respiratory activity through their inhibitory effects on preinspiratory neurons and the synaptic drive from preinspiratory neurons to inspiratory neurons. Central CO2-chemosensitive areas, which partly consist of CO2-excited neurons, in the rostral vent...
