Rats were shocked by pinching the cecum, a method which produces 100% mortality. Time of survival using artificial respiration was noted. Another group of animals was treated similarly, except that succinylcholine was administered immediately following the shocking procudure. Still another group was studied using curare rather than succinylcholine. No statistically significant differences in survival time were found between any of the three groups.
