Filter by:Should the dose of sugammadex in morbid obese patients be calculated on the real body weight or the ideal body weight? To study the pharmacodynamics of sugammadex in morbidly obese patients by comparing 1 mg/kg IBW versus 1 mg/kg TBW versus placebo.
To demonstrate that the use of Sugammadex enables physicians to perform early extubation in the operating room in ASA 4 & 4E patients Primary endpoint: • Extubation in the operating room before transfer to the PACU or ICU versus keeping the patient intubated when transferred. Secondary endpoints: • Time to extubation - measure the difference in time from application of the surgical dressing until extubation. Atelectasis - comparison of chest x-rays (CXR): prior to surgery, on admission to PACU or ICU and 24 hours after admission to PACU or ICU (This is the routine practice at Hadassa hospital for ASA IV patients.)
Postoperative residual curarization in the post anaesthesia unit has been associated to complications involving respiratory function and impaired laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles' function. Speed of reversal of neuromuscular blockade after administration of sugammadex versus neostigmine has been studied, but up to date no data are available concerning continuous acceleromyography monitoring of adductor pollicis and corrugator supercilii in morbidly obese patients undergoing weight loss surgery. The investigators' aim in this prospective, double-blinded study was to compare train of four ( TOF ) values, the presence or absence of clinical criteria of postoperative residual curarization , the dose requirements and the side effects of sugammadex and neostigmine for the reversal of rocuronium induced neuromuscular blockade in patients undergoing laparoscopic or open surgery for morbid obesity.
