Abstract
In certain operations, such as brain and eye surgery, involuntary muscle movements can be disastrous. Such operations require that steady levels of patient drug-induced muscle relaxation (or paralysis) be maintained. The provision of muscle relaxation allows the surgeon to make best use of a small incision and gain access to deep structures with minimal tissue damage.
