Neuromuscular Blockade Reversal With Sugammadex Reduces Cardiac Complications and OR Time for Prone Lumbar Spinal Fusion Compared With Neostigmine
The current results demonstrate that sugammadex may create less risk for cardiac complications, and is likely associated with more rapid reversal and decreased OR time during prone lumbar fusion. However, additional research is needed to further validate these findings, especially among patients with cardiac comorbidities.
