Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To measure and compare the incidence and severity of emergence cough between two groups of patients: 1. One group (A) receiving the total dose of sugammadex (2 mg/kg) intravenous over 10 seconds prior to extubation, and 2. The other group (B) receiving half of the total 2 mg/kg dose (1 mg/kg intravenous over 10 seconds) before extubation, and the remaining half (1 mg/kg intravenous over 10 seconds) immediately after extubation.Timepoint: 1. Emergence time (time period from discontinuation of all anaesthetic agents to administration of intravenous reversal agent sugammadex) 2. Extubation time (time period from intravenous administration of reversal agent sugammadex to the time at which tracheal extubation is performed) 3. 1 minute after extubation 4. 5 minutes after extubation 5. 60 minutes in the Post Anaesthesia Care Unit (PACU). | — |
