Prediction of Optimal Reversal Dose of Sugammadex after Rocuronium Administration in Adult Surgical Patients [PDF]
The objective of this study was to determine the point after sugammadex administration at which sufficient or insufficient dose could be determined, using first twitch height of train-of-four (T1 height) or train-of-four ratio (TOFR) as indicators ...
