I use ketamine (propofol if head injury) and vecuronium .25 mgkg. The usual dose of vecuronium is 0.1 mg/kg, but higher doses have been shown to have a faster onset that approaches the onset of SCh. In the unlikely event that you need to reverse the drug, 1 - 2 mg of physostigmine should do it. I stick with this method because it has worked for me and my patients (so far, knock on wood) for more than 20 years.> > Really, whatever way you choose to skin your cat should be the one that experience has proven to you to be the safest and most effective.
