Continuous versus intermittent neuromuscular blockade in patients during targeted temperature management after resuscitation from cardiac arrest-A randomized, double blinded, double dummy, clinical trial

Continuous neuromuscular blockade during the first day after resuscitation reduced shivering, midazolam and fentanyl requirement, time to awakening and discharge from intensive care unit. There were no differences in overall survival, cooling rate and time to target temperature.
