A member asked:
Hi doctors, was just wondering what is a defasciculating drug in rsi ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Looks like you : Read someone's operative/anesthesia record? A defasciculating drug is one that causes muscle relaxation to allow for a rapid sequence intubation or RSI. Rapid sequence intubations are performed for surgical patients who are at risk of vomiting and aspirating.
