Comparing sugammadex and neostigmine reversal of neuromuscular blockade in laparoscopic surgery

摘要

We read the article by Geldner et al. [1] with great interest and congratulate the authors for demonstrating that sugammadex is a potential agent for achieving reliable, complete and rapid reversal at varying depths of neuromuscular blockade. Although the article is of great clinical relevance, we feel that there are certain methodological issues that require clarification. Firstly, could the authors kindly describe how they ensured a post-tetanic count of 1-2 (deep blockade) at the end of surgery?
