The phenomena of residual curarisation and recurarisation after the use of long-acting non-depolarising neuromuscular blocking drugs such as tubocurarine and pancuronium were well recognised 60 years ago. But the incidence seemed to decline with the introduction of atracurium and vecuronium. ⋯ We urge clinicians to review their practice to ensure the highest standards of clinical care when using neuromuscular blocking drugs and reversal agents. This includes the use of quantitative neuromuscular monitoring whenever neuromuscular blocking drugs are administered.
