Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Comparing the effect of Neostigmine and Sugammadex on the recovery of diaphragmatic muscle strength in the post extubation period using ultrasonography.   Preoperative ultrasonography will be done to measure diaphragmatic excursion, thickness fraction, and internal oblique thickness fraction. In the operation theatre, the patients will be monitored with a three-lead ECG, NIBP, and pulse oximetry. A standard Anaesthesia protocol for induction will be followed in all patients. After 3 minutes of preoxygenation with 100% oxygen, general anaesthesia will be induced with Fentanyl 2 mcg/kg , Propofol 2–3mg/kg, and Rocuronium 0.6-1.2 mg /kg. Maintenance with inhalation agent- Sevoflurane, maintaining a MAC of 1. Neuromuscular transmission monitoring (NMT) will be done in all patients to look for train of four (TOF). Either of the two study drugs will be given for reversal of neuromuscular blockade and ultrasonography will be done immediately in the postoperative period and after 30 minutes in PACU to measure the three parameters.  
Comparator Agent  Patients will be randomly assigned with a 1:1 ratio to the Neostigmine (A group) and Sugammadex (B group).   Randomisation will be done using computer generated random numbers for allocation of patients into two groups- A and B. The syringe will be prepared by a non-participating person who will know the body weight of the patient. Group A will be given Neostigmine at 50 mcg/kg dose when TOFR is 0.7. Group B will be given Sugammadex at 4 mg/kg dose when TOFR is 0.7.

Brief Summary   Neuromuscular blocking agents are frequently administered in surgical settings. Ensuring effective reversal of neuromuscular blockade is crucial for the restoration of muscle function to its preoperative state, thus safeguarding patients against postoperative pulmonary complications. 
Patients will be randomly assigned with a 1:1 ratio to the Neostigmine (A group) and Sugammadex (B group). Preoperative assessment will be conducted in the preoperative area, one hour before surgery, using Ultrasound (GE Healthcare).  Diaphragmatic excursion and thickness fraction – indicative of inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength, will be measured while the patient is in a semi-recumbent position, with the head of the bed elevated to 45 degrees. The diaphragmatic excursion is evaluated through ultrasonography by placing the probe on the midclavicular line along the costal margin, angled over 70 degrees targeting the diaphragm dome (probe directed medially, cephalad, and dorsally) and then initiating M-mode tracing. Diaphragmatic excursion (DE) is the vertical thickness from the baseline to the highest inspiration point in quiet breathing. Diaphragm thickness is measured using a high frequency 10 MHz linear probe- B mode. Diaphragmatic Thickness fraction = Te insp - Te exp/ Te exp, where Te insp and Te exp are the thickness at the end of inspiration and expiration respectively. Internal oblique muscle thickness refers to the expiratory muscle strength. A linear probe will be placed midway between the costal margin and the iliac crest in the anterior axillary line with the probe perpendicular to the abdominal wall. Internal oblique muscle thickness is also measured at the end inspiration and also when the patient coughs with maximum strength.1

           TFIO =end coughing thickness-end inspiratory thickness / end inspiratory thickness X 100

All the above parameters will be measured 3 times each and the mean value will be considered   for data analysis.

In the operation theatre, the patients will be monitored with a three-lead ECG, NIBP, and pulse oximetry. A standard Anaesthesia protocol for induction will be followed in all patients. After 3 minutes of preoxygenation with 100% oxygen, general anaesthesia will be induced with Fentanyl 2 mcg/kg , Propofol 2–3mg/kg, and Rocuronium 0.6-1.2 mg /kg. Maintenance with inhalation agent- Sevoflurane, maintaining a MAC of 1. Neuromuscular transmission monitoring (NMT) will be done in all patients to look for train of four (TOF).

Reversal agent- either Neostigmine 50 mcg/kg or Sugammadex 4 mg/kg will be given when TOFR is 0.7. The patient will be assessed in the immediate post extubation period and 30 minutes post extubation in PACU, using ultrasonography in the same technique to measure diaphragmatic excursion, diaphragmatic thickness fraction and internal oblique thickness fraction. Both the preoperative and postoperative values will be compared and analysed for any residual effect of the neuromuscular blockade.
