Background Sugammadex reduces residual neuromuscular blockade after anaesthesia,
potentially preventing postoperative pulmonary complications. However, definitive evidence …

Introduction Sugammadex, a novel selective antagonist of non-depolarizing neuromuscular
blocking agents, has been shown to rapidly and effectively reverse moderate and deep …

Timely application of objective neuromuscular monitoring can avoid residual neuromuscular
blockade. We assessed the frequency of objective neuromuscular monitoring with …

Background: Robotic-assisted surgery is gaining more adaption in different surgical
specialties. The number of patients undergoing robotic-assisted thymectomy is continuously …

Background Managing postoperative pain in patients with obesity is challenging. Although
multimodal analgesia has proved effective for pain relief, the specific impacts of different …

In recent years, some studies have generated controversy since they conclude that
intraoperatively pharmacological reversal of neuromuscular blockade does not contribute to …

Patients undergoing emergency surgery may present with the acute respiratory distress
syndrome (ARDS) or develop this syndrome postoperatively. The incidence of ARDS in the …
