Randomized Controlled Trial
Electromyographic activity of the diaphragm during neostigmine or sugammadex-enhanced recovery after neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium: A study in anaesthetised healthy volunteers.
Reversal with sugammadex produces better recovery of diaphragm function than neostigmine reversal.

Observational Study
Ultrasound confirmation of central venous catheter position via a right supraclavicular fossa view using a microconvex probe: A observational pilot study.
Visualisation of a central venous catheter (CVC) with ultrasound is restricted to the internal jugular vein (IJV). CVC tip position is confirmed by chest radiography, intracardiac ECG or transoesophageal/transthoracic echocardiography (TEE/TTE). ⋯ Ultrasound via a right supraclavicular view is a feasible, well tolerated and accurate approach and should be further explored. Chest radiography confirmed CVC position in the lower SVC.
