Sugammadex reversal of muscle relaxant blockade provided less Post-Anesthesia Care Unit adverse effects than neostigmine/glycopyrrolate

Sugammadex is a direct reversal agent of aminosteroid muscle relaxants, particularly rocuronium, with promptly and completely reverse of deep neuromuscular block (NMB), which allows better surgical conditions. Sugammadex exhibits advantages over indirect reversal agent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor neostigmine with less adverse effects. In this retrospective review, we compared the incidence of postoperative vomiting (POV), postoperative urinary retention (POUR), and hemodynamic changes between sugammadex and neostigmine/glycopyrrolate in reversal of muscular blockade. Sugammadex showed superior in all three aspects. The heart rate was 7.253 lower (P
