Survey of neuromuscular monitoring and assessment of postoperative residual neuromuscular block in a postoperative anaesthetic care unit. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION The use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) is common during general anaesthesia. Neuromuscular monitoring with a peripheral nerve stimulator (PNS) is essential to prevent postoperative residual neuromuscular block (PRNB), defined as a ...

Incorrect monitoring settings can mimic residual neuromuscular blockade: A case report
Sugammadex reliably reverses rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade by forming a 1:1 complex with rocuronium; however, incomplete or recurrent blockade can still occur.

Dose–Response Evaluation of Sugammadex for Reversal of Deep Rocuronium-Induced Neuromuscular Block in Cats [PDF]
Background: Sugammadex is a selective γ-cyclodextrin compound that encapsulates steroidal neuromuscular blocking agents such as rocuronium, allowing rapid and predictable recovery from neuromuscular block (NMB).

Neuromuscular Monitoring, Muscle Relaxant Use, and Reversal at a Tertiary Teaching Hospital 2.5 Years after Introduction of Sugammadex: Changes in Opinions and Clinical Practice [PDF]
Sugammadex was introduced to Royal Perth Hospital in early 2011 without access restriction. Two departmental audits (26-page online survey and 1-week in-theatre snapshot audit) were undertaken to investigate the change of beliefs and clinical practice ...
