Adequate muscle relaxation and rapid recovery of neuromuscular function are essential for improving surgical conditions and reducing the incidence of complications during LMS. However, the ideal muscle relaxant with a rapid onset and short duration of action is not yet available. Rocuronium has rapid onset at higher doses, but with a prolonged duration of action. Sugammadex is a selective relaxant-binding agent that allows for rapid reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade...
