Severe Repeated Hypotension Occurred after Rocuronium Administrations in a Morbidly Obese Patient: A Case Report
Rocuronium pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics can be influenced by several factors like gender and obesity. We propose a brief report of a patient (59 years old, weight 135 kg, BMI 52.7) who showed three episodes of severe hypotension not responsive to continuous noradrenaline infusion therapy after rocuronium administration (dose 0.6 mg/kg; total dose: 50 mg) not based on her IBW (ideal body weight).http://www.peertechz.com/Anesthesiology/GJA-1-103.php
