Abstract The rapid reversal of deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB) is important but remains challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adamgammadex versus sugammadex in reversing deep rocuronium‐induced NMB. This multicenter, randomized, phase IIb study included 80 patients aged 18–64 years, American Society of Anesthesiologists

Patients with very long‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCADD) are prone to hypoglycemia and clinical decompensation when metabolic demands of the body are not met. We present a pediatric patient with VLCADD who underwent a posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis requiring intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring.

Background. Succinylcholine and rocuronium are the predominant neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) used for rapid sequence intubation (RSI) in the emergency department (ED). Prior studies have found reduced first‐attempt intubation success (FAIS) with rocuronium compared to succinylcholine.
