Brief Summary  

This randomized, double blinded clinical trial will be conducted to compare sugammadex and neostigmine for the reversal of vecuronium induced neuromuscular blockade in 36 patients of ASA I or II aged 18 to 60 years, of both sexes, of Manipuri Ethnicity undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia in the Department of Anaesthesiology, Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal, Manipur.

The patients will be randomly divided into two groups (Group A and Group B) of 18 participants each.  Group A patients will receive 10 ml of Inj. Sugammadex 2mg/kg and Group B patients will receive 10 ml of Inj. Neostigmine 50mcg/kg (to a maximum of 5mg) plus glycopyrrolate 10mcg/kg when four twitches to train of four stimulation appear. The time taken from the start of administration of the study drugs at appearance of fourth twitch of train of four stimulation to its normalised ratio of 0.9 and time taken to attain 5 sec head lift from the administration of the study drugs will be compared for the two groups. Additionally, hemodynamic parameters and side effects, if any, will be assessed.

All the findings and observations made during the entire study will be tabulated, graphically depicted wherever possible, statistically analyzed and inference will be drawn to evaluate and compare the two drugs with their clinical advantages and side effects.
