Primary outcomePrimary: Total Dose of Sugammadex Required to Produce a Train-of-four Ratio of >0.9, Categorized as Greater Than or Less Than the Manufacturers Recommended Dose Based on the Train-of-four or Post Tetanic Response Prior to Administration of Sugammadex — 84; 13 Participants

Summary
Sugammadex is frequently used to reverse the effects of neuromuscular blocking drugs. The recommended doses are 2 mg/kg or 4 mg/kg depending upon the depth of neuromuscular blockade. Clinical studies and experience have suggested that smaller doses may be effective. The purpose of this observational study is to determine the minimal effective dose of sugammadex by administering 50 mg every 5 minutes until the train-of-four ratio is 0.9 in a cohort of cardiac surgery patients, and to determine the duration of action by measuring the train-of-four every hour for up to 6 hours following reversal.
