A case report of Cholinergic syndrome an unusual complication of Neostigmine administration

Background and Objective: Cholinergic syndrome (Cholinergic crisis) is an extremely dangerous complication of anti-cholinesterase drugs such as neostigmine. Isolated forearm technique (IFT) with IV injection of neostigmine is used for the evaluation of awareness, which is a deliberate problem in nar...
