Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Comparison of the recovery time from neuromuscular blockade after<br>administration of sugammadex dosed on the basis of total body weight<br>or corrected body weight in morbidly obese patients;Secondary Objective: Comparison of complete recovery of TOF ratio ?1 between morbidly<br>obese patients receiving sugammadex dosed on the basis of total body<br>weight or corrected body weight.;Primary end point(s): Difference in the time required for complete recovery (TOF ratio =1) from moderate or profound neuromuscular block after administration of sugammadex (TBW group vs. group CBW) during recovery from general anesthesia at the end of the surgical procedure.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of the surgical procedure
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Difference in the time required to obtain a normalized TOF ratio (TOF ratio post-reversal / TOF ratio baseline) =1 after administration of sugammadex (TBW group vs. group CBW). Adverse effects;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Until hospital discharge
