Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Expected difficult endotracheal intubation based on anatomic or pathologic findings or history. Known or suspected neuromuscular disease, known to affect the neuromuscular blocade. Severely impaired renal or hepatic function, as evaluated by the investigator. Known or suspected allergy to drugs used in the trial.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): Duration of action, defined as time to reappearance of T4 (first time the fourth twitch is seen in three consecutive measurements). ;Main Objective: To optimize rocuronium dosing in obese patients undergoing gastric bypass or gastric banding. Main hypothesis: Rocuronium dosed according to ideal body weight results in shorter duration of action compared to rocuronum dosed according to corrected body weight without prolonged onset time or compromised endotracheal intubation or surgical demands for muscle relaxation.
