Sugammadex

Keywords

Sugammadex, preterm neonates

Brief summary

The primary aim of the work is to compare the efficacy of Sugammadex and neostigmine in reversing rocuronium-induced muscle relaxation to reach complete recovery of neuromuscular block (TOF ratio≥ 0.9) in preterm neonates. The secondary aim is to evaluate the safety of using Sugammadex in preterm neonates and to detect any complications that may occur in this age group.

Interventions

DRUGSugammadex

give 2 mg/ kg as muscle reversal drug in premature infants

DRUGNeostigmine

give 0.02 mg/ kg atropine and 0.05 mg/kg neostigmine IV. as muscle reversal drug in premature infants
