ABSTRACT
Objective: To detect the patients who are managed with rocuronium and show residual neuromuscular blockade, and compare the reversal agent, neostigmine versus sugammadex, until effective reversal is obtained.
Methodology: 61 patients were included who underwent rhinoseptoplasty under balanced general anesthesia with rocuronium at a dose of 0.6 mg/kg. The TOF was obtained, and if ≤ 0.9, it was reverted randomly with sugammadex (group 1) 2 mg/kg or neostigmine plus atropine (group 2) 0.04 + 0.02 mg/kg.
Results: For group 1 (n = 31 patients), the anesthetic time was 61 min, the average residual relaxation was 64% and it was reversed in 2.5 min, reaching 98% recovery. For group 2 (n = 30), the anesthetic time was 59 min, the average residual relaxation was 57%, which was reversed in 11.9 min, reaching a 93% recovery.
Conclusions: Both drugs, neostigmine and sugammadex show satisfactory reversal of residual block (TOF 0.90). However, sugammadex reaches effective reversal (TOF 0.98) and it reverts in a shorter time compared with neostigmine, 10 times faster.
