Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in intra-abdominal pressure which surgeons use during surgery and post-surgery pain in men who undergo robotic prostate surgery with deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB), compared with moderate NMB.
Interventions
The Moderate NMB group (Control ) will have rocuronium infusion titrated to moderate paralysis defined as TOF of 1-2 (infusion start rate 0.003 mg/kg/min or 0.18mg/kg/hr).
The Deep NMB group (Intervention) will have rocuronium infusion titrated to deep paralysis defined as PTC of 1-2 (infusion start rate 0.006mg/kg/min or 0.35mg/kg/hr).

The numeric pain scale (NPS) is a subjective measure which can be used in recovery rooms to assist in the assessment of pain. Individuals rate their pain on an eleven-point scale. The scale is composed of 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). |
