Sugammadex Dose Finding Under Two Years Old

August 27, 2024 updated by: Sang-Hwan Ji

Reversal of Rocuronium-induced Neuromuscular Blockade by Sugammadex in Children Younger Than 2 Years Old: a Prospective Dose Finding Study

This is a prospective dose-finding study of sugammadex for conventional reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade in children under two years of age. This study will explore 50% effective dose and 95% effective dose of sugammadex for reversal of neuromuscular blockade in less than two minutes under biased coin up-and-down method.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The investigators are planning to enroll 33 patients to obtain data. The starting dose of sugammadex will be 0.5mg/kg. When the dose for a patient was not effective, the dose for next patient will be increased by 0.5mg/kg. When the dose was effective, the dose for next patient will be decreased by 0.5mg/kg or maintained, with a 1:1 of allocation ratio.

The investigators will also monitor incidence of any adverse events including residual blockade to evaluate safety of sugammadex in children younger than two years old.

Experimental: Study group
Sequential determination of dose according to previous participant's result and by chance.
The starting dose of sugammadex will be 0.5mg/kg. When the dose for a patient was not effective, the dose for next patient will be increased by 0.5mg/kg. When the dose was effective, the dose for next patient will be decreased by 0.5mg/kg or maintained, with a 1:1 of allocation ratio.
