Impact of iv Dexamethasone on Reversal of Rocuronium-induced Neuromuscular Block by Sugammadex

NCT02562417 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2017-07-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Sugammadex is used as a reversal drug for rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced neuromuscular block during general anaesthesia. IV dexamethasone is injected as a prophylactic measure against postoperative nausea and vomiting. Recent animal data have shown that dexamethasone may impair the reversal effect of sugammadex. The objective of this randomised controlled trial is to confirm in the clinical practice these preliminary results.
