Intradermal skin tests for rocuronium and cisatracurium in patients with a history of allergy: a retrospective study.
Conclusions: We found no association between allergy history and positive skin test for NMBAs. Therefore, a systematic screening test for NMBAs or other anesthetic agents before anesthesia is not considered necessary even in patients with an allergy history.
