neuromuscular blockade
C2CEFR level
90/100Rarity: very rare
TechnicalRegister
The drug-induced interruption of transmission at the neuromuscular junction to produce skeletal muscle relaxation for surgery or intubation.
I established neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium and monitored its depth with a nerve stimulator.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
