Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Group L  Will receive Neostigmine (0.05mg/kg)+ Glycopyrrolate(0.02mg/kg). Neostigmine inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase and causes reversal from neuromuscular blockade. Glycopyrrolate is to prevent muscarinic side effects of neostigmine. 
Intervention  Group R  Will receive Sugammadex 2 mg/kg. Sugammadex is a modified gamma-cyclodextrin which forms very tight water soluble complexes at a 1:1 ratio with steroidal neuromuscular blocking drugs(eg, vecuronium) and which favors movement of neuromuscular blockade drug from the neuromuscular junction into the plasma, which quickly reverses neuromuscular blockade.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To compare the effect of sugammadex versus neostigmine on change of BIS value at end of surgery (time point t0 - just after skin closure) and at TOF count 4 with TOF ratio more than 0.7 (time point t1 - Primary end point)  At time of surgery-
t0 - just after skin closure
t1 - TOF count 4 with TOF ratio more than 0.7  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Sedation score using Modified Observer Assessment of Alertness & Sedation (MOAAS) scale at timepoint t1.

Clinical signs of awakening at TOF 4. (eg, sucking, grimacing, moving & coughing on the tracheal tube)

Time to eye response.

Emergence delirium assessed by CAM scale at 1 hour & 24 hour post extubation.

Airway related complications within 30 mins post extubation. 
On day of surgery -
t0 - just after skin closure
t1 - TOF count 4 with TOF ratio more than 0.7
30 minutes post extubation
1 hour post extubation.

1 day after surgery -
24 hour post extubation.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   There are no studies on the effect of neuromuscular blockade reversal on BIS and other processed EEG parameter in elderly patients . We hypothesise that the use of suggamadex as compared to neostigmine would lead to higher BIS and thereby better neurocognitive outcomes in elderly patients.
