Article Synopsis
  • Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is used globally, and this study explores the benefits of sugammadex in reversing neuromuscular blockade (NMB) for obese patients undergoing the procedure, comparing it to neostigmine.*
  • The systematic review analyzed data from nine studies involving 633 patients, finding that sugammadex led to significantly quicker recovery times and reduced risks of postoperative complications like residual curarization, nausea, vomiting, and cardiovascular issues.*
  • The findings suggest that sugammadex is a more effective and safer option than neostigmine for managing NMB in obese patients during bariatric surgeries.*

Background Neuromuscular blocking agents are crucial for anesthesia but can cause reversible paralysis, leading to risks like postoperative residual dysfunction. Undetected paralysis in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) jeopardizes patient safety by impairing airway function and increasing complications. Effective reversal, assessed clinically or via nerve stimulation, is critical to prevent residual postoperative curarization (RPOC), which is linked to significant morbidity and mortality.

Background: Although diaphragm ultrasound can be used for detecting residual neuromuscular blockade post-surgery, there exists notable dearth in contemporary research exploring the correlation between preoperative Child-Pugh classification and the effectiveness of sugammadex in reversing rocuronium-induced blockade as evaluated by diaphragmatic ultrasonography.

Methods: This was a prospective, double-blind, non-randomized controlled clinical trial conducted on patients scheduled for laparoscopic liver resection surgery. The participants were categorized into two groups, A and B, based on their preoperative Child-Pugh classification.

This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the optimal weight scalar to dose sugammadex in a morbidly obese (MO) patient population (BMI≥40 kg/m). The primary outcome was recovery time from moderate neuromuscular blockade (NMB) or deep NMB. Secondary outcomes included time to extubation and incidence of postoperative residual curarization (PORC).

Coadministration of intravenous calcium along with neostigmine for rapid neuromuscular blockade recovery: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

J Anaesthesiol Clin Pharmacol

April 2023

Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India.

Postoperative residual curarization (PORC) and the impact of the coadministration of intravenous calcium along with an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor on it are not well addressed. Extensive electronic database screening was done until October 7, 2022 after enlisting the protocol of this systematic review in PROSPERO (CRD42021274879). Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the impact of intravenous calcium and neostigmine coadministration on neuromuscular recovery were included in this meta-analysis.
