Reversing muscle relaxants in ICU patients
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests two medicines that help reverse the muscle-relaxing drugs given to patients on breathing tubes in the intensive care unit. The goal is to see which one works better and faster so patients can wake up sooner.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 19 years of age or older.
- You have a breathing tube placed in the intensive care unit.
- You do not have any condition that makes it hard to check your brain function.
- You do not have a muscle or nerve disease.
- You are not allergic to the study medicines (sugammadex or neostigmine).
- You are not taking toremifene, fusidic acid, or hormonal contraception.

This study tests a domestic version of sugammadex sodium (a drug that reverses muscle relaxants) after lung surgery. It aims to see how well it works to help you wake up and recover from anesthesia.
This study compares two medications (sugammadex and neostigmine) given after surgery to help you wake up from anesthesia faster and recover more smoothly. It may help you leave the recovery room sooner and feel better after your procedure.
This study compares a new muscle relaxant medication with a standard one to see how well they work for placing a breathing tube and maintaining muscle relaxation during surgery. It aims to find a safer or more effective option for patients undergoing general anesthesia.
This trial compares two muscle relaxants, rocuronium and cisatracurium, to see which causes fewer complications in people with chronic kidney disease (not on dialysis) who need general anesthesia. If you have kidney disease and are having surgery that requires a breathing tube, this study may help determine the safer drug for you.
This trial uses a device called TetraGraph to measure how quickly a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works and wears off during surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for patients who need this medicine.
This trial tests whether a drug called sugammadex, which reverses muscle relaxation from anesthesia, might cause jaw clenching in some people. The study will watch for this effect during routine surgery to better understand the risk.
