Sugammadex for treatment of postoperative residual curarization in a morbidly obese patient [PDF]
To the Editor, Small degrees of postoperative residual curarization increase the incidence of critical respiratory events (CREs) in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). Certain patients, especially morbidly obese subjects, may be more susceptible to CREs, and prompt treatment is required when the situation occurs.
