Optimal anesthesia protocols for successful intraoperative neuromonitoring during thyroid surgery

“…In particular, researchers have reported concerns that sugammadex overdose could lead to complications such as severe bradycardia, interaction with setroids, coagulopathy, and neuronal damage. Several human studies have investigated the use of various doses of sugammadex combined with different doses of rocuronium for IONM during thyroid surgery 26,[30][31][32][33][34] . Until recently, combination of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronim and 2 mg/kg sugammadex was recommended for IONM during thyroid surgery or parathyroid surgery 30,31,34) .…”

However, NMB does not need to be as fully reversed for IONM during thyroid surgery as it does for extubation, so this dose of sugammadex may be excessive.…”
