Summary

Sugammadex or neostigmine are given at the end of the surgery to reverse neuro muscular blocking drugs (NMBD). This study will evaluate whether reversal of NMBD with sugammadex is associated with faster recovery than neostigmine resulting in faster discharge from the operating room (OR) in obese patients with OSA undergoing bariatric surgery. Half of the patients in the study will receive sugammadex and the other half of the patients will receive neostigmine.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Sugammadex Sodium

Sugammadex is a FDA approved newer NMBD reversal agent. But does not use in standard of care in most of institutions This study is designed to compare the impact of reversal of neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex vs. neostigmine on discharge time from the operating room in obese patients with OSA undergoing bariatric surgery

DRUG

Neostigmine

neostigmine is a FDA approved NMBD reversal drug, uses as standard care drug in most of the institutions. neostigmine use as active comparator to compare with investigational drug Sugammadex in the study.
