About this trial

The present trial conducted to demonstrate the administration of sugammadex as reversal of neuromuscular blockade agent reduces the incidence of emergence agitation (EA) comparing to neostigmine

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients scheduled elective strabismus surgery aged 4-7 with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification 1-3.

Disqualifiers

ASA classification 3 or more

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Bridion 200 MG in 2 ML Injection

    Drug

    Sugammadex is administered at the end of surgery after assessment of the level of neuromuscular blockade is done. The dosage of each reversal agent is determined with response to TOF or PTC.

  • Pyridostigmine Bromide 5 MG/ML

    Drug

    Pyridostigmine is administered at the end of surgery after assessment of the level of neuromuscular blockade is done. The dosage of each reversal agent is determined with response to TOF.

Treatment groups

76 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: group pyridostigmineActive comparator 1 intervention
Group B: group sugammadexActive comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

1

The incidence of EA in postanesthesia care unit (PACU)

EA is assessed with the PAED scale in PACU. EA is defined as the score is 10 or higher.

Time frame
EA is assessed three times at 15-minute intervals in PACU until discharge from PACU.
