Efficacy and Safety of Sugammadex Dosed According to Actual Body Weight (ABW) or Ideal Body Weight (IBW) in Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade (NMB) in Morbidly Obese Participants (MK-8616-146)

"Following administration of NMBA (Rocuronium or Vecuronium) to achieve moderate NMB, participants received a single i.v. bolus of Sugammadex (2 mg/kg by ABW) for reversal of moderate NMB.~Moderate NMB is defined as the reappearance of a second twitch (T2) in response to TOF stimulations."

"Following administration of NMBA (Rocuronium or Vecuronium) to achieve moderate NMB, participants received a single i.v. bolus of Sugammadex (2 mg/kg by IBW) for reversal of moderate NMB.~Moderate NMB is defined as the reappearance of T2 in response to TOF stimulations."

"Following administration of NMBA (Rocuronium or Vecuronium) to achieve deep NMB, participants received a single i.v. bolus of Sugammadex (4 mg/kg by ABW) for reversal of deep NMB.~Deep NMB is defined as no response to TOF stimulations (TOF=0) and a detection target of 1-2 post-tetanic counts (PTCs)."

"Following administration of NMBA (Rocuronium or Vecuronium) to achieve deep NMB, participants will receive a single i.v. bolus of Sugammadex (4 mg/kg by IBW) for reversal of deep NMB.~Deep NMB is defined as no response to TOF stimulations (TOF=0) and a detection target of 1-2 post-tetanic counts (PTCs)."

"Following administration of NMBA (Rocuronium or Vecuronium) to achieve moderate NMB, participants received a single i.v. bolus of Neostigmine (50 µg/kg; 5 mg maximum) and Glycopyrrolate (10 µg/kg; 1 mg maximum), dosed according to participant ABW for reversal of moderate NMB.~Moderate NMB is defined as the reappearance of T2 in response to TOF stimulations."

To achieve NMB, participants received steroidal NMBA Rocuronium Bromide or Vecuronium Bromide administered via i.v. infusion and dosed according to participant ABW. NMBAs were concomitant medications used per label as adjunct to general anesthesia.
