Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary Aims 1.To compare the time from the start of administration of neostigmine or sugammadex until a train-of-four (TOF) ratio of 0.9 (1st twitch paralysis) is recovered. 2.To determine the time between the start of antagonist administration (either neostigmine or sugammadex) and the recovery of a TOF ratio of 1.0. Timepoint: At 15 minutes after recovery from neuromuscular blockade | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Aims 1. To find out the incidence of postoperative recurrence of neuromuscular blockade, which is defined either as a decrease in the TOF ratio to below 0.9 after full recovery, or as a deterioration in the clinical signs of recovery from the block. 2. To find out the incidence of other adverse effects like bradycardia, tachycardia, laryngospasm, bronchospasm and increased respiratory secretions. Timepoint: Upto 1 hour after achieving TOF ratio of 1.0 | — |
