Comparing Reversal With Neostigmine and Sugammadex in Paediatric

NCT03137290

Completed 80 enrolled Universiti Sains Malaysia
RandomizedParallel-groupDouble-blindTreatment

Summary

A reversal agent is commonly given to improve neuromuscular function after intra-operative administration of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents. The administration of conventional reversal agent neostigmine is associated with many undesirable side effects. For almost a decade, a new novel drug sugammadex has been used to specifically antagonize the effect of aminosteroidal neuromuscular blocking agents. A total of 80 paediatric patients planned for general anaesthesia were divided into two groups and were given either neostigmine+atropine, or sugammadex for reversal once the operation had completed.
