Combination Drugs: Making It Easy For Cdr To Say “Yes”?

Abstract

outcome, percentage of days in which all procedures were completed within the scheduled OR day, was higher in the OR using sugammadex (79.8%) compared to the OR using neostigmine (40.7%) [range for sugammadex values was 40.7% to 93.1% in the exploratory analyses]. Base-case total overtime over a one-month period was less with sugammadex use compared to neostigmine use (3.6 and 15.0 hours, respectively). ConClusions: Even relatively modest reductions in procedure times with use of sugammadex for NMB reversal might lead to meaningful improvement in OR efficiency and reduced overtime.
