Response - NO
Brief Summary   Neuromuscular blocking agents have been one of the cornerstones of anaesthesia.
When balanced anaesthesia with desflurane,dexedetomidine,propofol infusion and scalp block will prelude the use of neuromuscular blocking agents in patients undergoing supratentorial craniotomy surgery under intense hemodynamic monitoring.
