Clarifying the grey space of sugammadex induced bradycardia.

Purpose Of Review: This review describes recent prospective and retrospective work exploring the incidence and clinical consequence of sugammadex-induced bradycardia and an update of recent evidence and adverse event reports to the United States Food and Drug Administration regarding the incidence of sugammadex induced bradycardia.

Recent Findings: This work suggests that the incidence of sugammadex-induced bradycardia can range from 1 to 7% depending on the definition to reverse moderate to deep neuromuscular blockade. For most instances, the bradycardia is inconsequential.

Article Synopsis
  • A 68-year-old man experienced severe bradycardia and cardiac arrest after undergoing surgery with rocuronium and receiving sugammadex for muscle relaxation reversal.
  • Despite initial treatment not working, he was successfully resuscitated after 4 minutes, remained stable, and was discharged without issues.
  • The case highlights a potential complication of sugammadex that has been noted before, calling for increased awareness among medical professionals.

Rationale: There is evidence that sugammadex can facilitate extubation post-surgery and attenuate postoperative pulmonary complications resulting from postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade. However, it may induce adverse effects, including bronchospasm, laryngospasm, bradycardia, hypotension, and cardiac arrest. Here, we present a case of sugammadex-induced bradycardia and hypotension.
