Study to Determine if Administration of Sugammadex Impacts Hospital Efficiency

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Neuromuscular Blockade
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02860507
Lead Sponsor
University of South Florida
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Sugammadex in rapidly reversing deep neuromuscular blockaded (induced by rocuronium)

Detailed Description

Participants in the study group will receive a single bolus of Sugammadex (4.0mg/kg) prior to extubation. In the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), a blinded safety-assessor will use the visual analog scale to clinically assess post-operative pain. Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) will be assessed using a PONV rating scale every 30 minutes until PACU discharge. All patients will be monitored with continuous pulse-oximetry.
