Effectiveness of Sugammadex on Muscle Relaxant Reversal in Preterm Neonates

Not Applicable
Conditions
Sugammadex
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04566796
Lead Sponsor
Alexandria University
Brief Summary

The primary aim of the work is to compare the efficacy of Sugammadex and neostigmine in reversing rocuronium-induced muscle relaxation to reach complete recovery of neuromuscular block (TOF ratio≥ 0.9) in preterm neonates.

The secondary aim is to evaluate the safety of using Sugammadex in preterm neonates and to detect any complications that may occur in this age group.

(Group N)Neostigminepatients in this group will receive 0.02 mg/kg atropine with neostigmine 0.05 mg/kg IV. to reverse the action of the neuromuscular blocker given.
(Group S)Sugammadexthe patients will receive Sugammadex 2mg/kg IV. As the reversal agent
