Cisatracurium
A nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent that competitively antagonizes acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, producing skeletal muscle relaxation for endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. It undergoes Hofmann elimination, a spontaneous chemical degradation independent of liver or kidney function, making it particularly useful in patients with organ dysfunction. It has minimal histamine-releasing properties compared to atracurium.
