Publication Details   This study will help us to find out any advantage of using Calcium Gluconate with the reversal agent for speedy recovery from Muscle Relaxants 
Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

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

Brief Summary  

Muscle relaxation is the integral part of general anaesthesia for intubation in elective surgeries.  Few studies are published regarding the role of using calcium with reversal agents for faster recovery in adults only but there is paucity of studies in pediatric group. After ethical clearance the plan is to compare the effects of addition of calcium gluconate to the reversal agent on the basis of train of four and BIS monitoring.. Using BIS monitoring for the depth of anaesthesia will be useful to avoid the bias due to the depth of anaesthesia.

 After completion of surgery, as TOFc-4 (Train of Four count) is achieved, patients will receive 70 µg/kg neostigmine and 20µg/kg glycopyrrolate. Calcium gluconate 5mg/kg will be given with neostigmine and glycopyrrolate in the calcium group and normal saline in the control group. Duration of recovery between giving the reversal agent and the train of four ratio of 90 will be noticed and then compared.
