[Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of vecuronium in children].

Pharmacodynamics of vecuronium have been studied in children 1 to 10 years old. Doses from 0.015 to 0.1 mg/kg were given and the effects measured mechanically and by electromyography. For 0.1 mg/kg the pharmacokinetics were established. A smaller distribution volume and higher plasma clearance in children as compared to adults have been found, while the dose-effect ratio is the same. The action of vecuronium is shorter in children than in adults.
