Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to learn if there is a difference in recovery time when using sugammadex versus neostigmine. The researchers also hope to add further knowledge and data to the safety of using sugammadex in burn patients who are hypermetabolic.
Interventions
Sugammadex is indicated for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade.
Neostigmine is indicated for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade.
Glycopyrrolate is used in conjunction with neostigmine to prevent neostigmine's muscarinic effects.
