ABSTRACT
Background: Sugammadex is a gamma-cyclodextrin used to reverse the neuromuscular blockade induced by aminosteroid blockers of rocuronium or vecuronium. The objective of this study was to show the experience with sugammadex in open population.
Methods: Design: Retrospective, longitudinal and observational study.
Setting: Beneficencia Española de la Laguna (Sanatorio Español) and Unidad Médica de Alta Especialidad No. 71, IMSS.
Period: Eight months.
Patients: Surgical subjects who received rocuronium.
Maneuver: Administration of sugammadex. Depth of the block was classified according to the observed response in the neuromuscular monitoring (TOF Watch
® SX, Organon), using two patterns of stimulation, post-tetanic count and train-of-four. Doses of 2, 4 and 16 mg/kg of sugammadex were used for reversion of the effects of rocuronium.
Variables: Demographics, clinical, surgical, anesthetic and adverse events.
Statistical analysis: Descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results: There were 233 patients, 126 women (54.1%) and 17 men (45.9%). Mean age was 39.0 ± 16.6 years. There were 158 elective surgeries and 75 urgent surgeries (32.2%). General anesthesia was used in all patients. Depth of block was moderate in 158 cases (67.8%), intense in 16 (6.9%) and deep in 59 (25.3%), respectively.
Conclusions: Sugammadex showed efficacy and safety in Mexican population with high diversity of surgeries both on the government context and on the private context. Then, results of this study are generalizable to all population.
