Abstract
The administration of metocurine to patients with aortic stenosis after a morphine-diazepam anesthetic induction is associated with very slight vasodilation and minimal increases in heart rate. These effects are different from the hemodynamic changes caused by the other nondepolarizing relaxants. For this reason, metocurine is a better choice than gallamine and d-tubocurarine and a reasonable alternative to pancuronium in patients with aortic stenosis after the induction of anesthesia with morphine and diazepam.
