Use of Sugammadex Administered at 5 Minutes After Administration of 1.2 mg/kg Esmeron® (19.4.205)(P05942)

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Anesthesia, General
• Interventions: Drug: Placebo; Drug: sugammadex

• Registration Number: NCT00379613
• Lead Sponsor: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of sugammadex when this compound is administered during deep neuromuscular block. Sugammadex is administered shortly (5 minutes) after administration of a high dose (1.2 mg/kg) of the neuromuscular blocking agent rocuronium . Under these circumstance the neuromuscular block is deep. The safety and pharmacokinetics of sugammadex are also studied.
