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.
This study compares how quickly two different drugs (a half dose of sugammadex and neostigmine) reverse the effects of the muscle relaxant rocuronium after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. The goal is to find which drug helps you wake up and breathe normally faster.
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 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 ways of helping children wake up and breathe on their own after minimally invasive heart surgery. One group gets a drug to quickly reverse the muscle relaxant, while the other group waits for it to wear off naturally. The goal is to see which method allows a safer, earlier breathing tube removal.
This study tests different doses of a medicine called sugammadex to reverse the effects of a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) used during surgery in infants under 24 months old. It aims to find the best dose to help babies recover from anesthesia safely and quickly.
