Review Meta Analysis
The effect of sugammadex on patient morbidity and quality of recovery after general anaesthesia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Residual neuromuscular block is associated with increased patient morbidity. Therefore prevention of residual neuromuscular block is an important component of general anaesthesia where neuromuscular blocking agents are used. Whereas sugammadex improves reversal based on neuromuscular twitch monitoring parameters, there have been no prospective, adequately powered definitive studies demonstrating that sugammadex is also associated with less patient morbidity. ⋯ PROSPERO database (CRD42022325858).
