The use of air oxygen mixture with isoflurane has become more common in the place of nitrous oxide, especially in laparoscopic and abdominal surgeries. With a varied mixture of gases and isoflurane used in general anesthesia, the exact dosing requirement and time duration of action have not been precisely studied with vecuronium when given as a bolus, as is given routinely.
