Residual curarization and postoperative respiratory complications following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The effect of reversal agents: sugammadex vs. neostigmine [PDF]
The Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2015 Abstract Background: Incomplete muscle relaxant reversal or re-curarization may be associated with postoperative respiratory complications. In this retrospective study we compared the incidence of postoperative residual curarization and respiratory complications in association with the type of muscle relaxant reversal agent, sugammadex ...

Management of Residual Neuromuscular Blockade Recovery: Age‐Old Problem with a New Solution
Case Reports in Anesthesiology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 Neostigmine has been traditionally used as the agent of choice to reverse Neuromuscular Blockade (NMB) after muscle paralysis during general anesthesia. However, the use of neostigmine has not been without untoward events. Sugammadex is a novel drug that selectively binds to aminosteroid nondepolarizing muscle relaxants and reverses even a deep level ...

Analysis of Clinical Outcomes and Cost-Effectiveness of Neuromuscular Blocking Drug Reversal in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea [PDF]
, 2022 Non-depolarizing neuromuscular blockers are used during many surgical procedures to induce muscle relaxation for tracheal intubation and improve surgical conditions for surgeons. The use of these medications requires an agent to be given to fully reverse

Sugammadex and Reversal of Neuromuscular Block in Adult Patient with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Case Reports in Anesthesiology, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and severe form of myopathy. Patients with DMD are more sensitive to sedative, anesthetic, and neuromuscular blocking agents which may result in intraoperative and early postoperative cardiovascular and respiratory complications, as well as prolonged recovery from anesthesia.
