Reversal With Low Doses of Sugammadex in Patients Undergoing Non-cardiac Surgery

May 27, 2018 updated by: Tayyba Aslam, The Hospital of Vestfold

A Randomized Double Blind Trial Comparing Reversal With Low Doses Of Sugammadex aFter Rocuronium-induced Neuromuscular Block Under General Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Non-cardiac Surgery(TOF TRIAL)

Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) are among the most commonly used drugs during general anesthesia and may induce complete muscle paralysis.They are used clinically to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to optimize surgical working conditions. Incomplete recovery from non-depolarising NMBAs continues to be a common problem in modern postoperative care unit and is associated with significant risk of microaspiration and hypoventilation which leads to pulmonary complications.Recently effective reversal of neuromuscular blockade has been described by use of lower dose of sugammadex the recommended without providing adequate answer to whether the lower dose is safe enough to avoid recurrent block.

Hypotheses:

  1. Administration of sugammadex 0.25 mg/kg at TOF ratio 0.3 will successfully reverse (TOF=0.9) rocuronium induced neuromuscular block within 10 min.
  2. Recurrent block (TOF ratio < 0.9) does not occur after reversal with low dose sugammadex 0.25 mg/kg.

The primary objective of this trial is to assess the dose-response characteristics of sugammadex in reversing rocuronium induced neuromuscular block and to identify the minimal effective dose

Secondary objective is to assess the safety of different doses of sugammadex (recurrent block (TOF ratio < 0.9) after reversal and the occurrence of adverse reactions)

Sugammadex is a very expensive drug which limits its use i anaesthesia department. By optimising drug dosage it may have economic impact and contribute to a wider use of sugammadex to reverse neuromuscular block before extubation and thus avoid incomplete recovery. This may lead to less risk for postoperative pulmonary complications and thereby reduce morbidity and mortality after surgery.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
