The comparative effect of single dose mivacurium during sevoflurane or propofol anesthesia in children

Background:  We aimed to randomly compare intubating conditions, recovery characteristics and neuromuscular effects of single dose of mivacurium (0.2 mg·kg−1) during sevoflurane vs. propofol anesthesia in 60 healthy children, undergoing inguinal surgery.
