Abstract

The objective of this study was to compare the haemodynamic and myocardial effects of pipecuronium and pancuronium in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) during benzodiazepine/sufentanil anaesthesia. Twenty-seven ASA III-IV patients received lorazepam (1-3 mg) po and midazolam (
