Per-arm endpoint measurements with 95% confidence intervals where reported. Source: trial results section.
Time to ExtubationPrimary· 0 minutes of study drug to 3 days after study drug administration
Time to extubation: West Virginia University Hospitals use an electronic medical record (EMR) to chart "procedure stop." The definition for "time to extubation" is from the time the investigators chart "procedure stop" to the time of "extubation".

In the intensive care unit: If the patient awake and alert, is able to be positioned, can cough when asked, able to follow command to lick top and bottom lip, and is able to breathe freely then a registered nurse bedside swallowing/dysphagia screen is performed at a time point somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes following the operating room extubation. To perform the screen, a teaspoon is used to place distilled water on each subject's tongue, 3 mL each time 2 consecutive times. Then 3 ounces of water intake. The patient is asked to swallow the water to evaluate the swallowing ability. Aspirat

Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov
Time frame: Adverse events were collected for a 24 hour period. The 24 hour period begins when surgery stop is designated in the electronic medical record..
Reporting threshold: 2.8%.
Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the use of Sugammadex will reduce time from reversal to extubation and improve other post extubation outcomes in Coronary artery bypass grafting patients. This study is a prospective, clinical interventional, randomized single blinded single-center design. The nurses in the cardiac intensive care unit will be blinded to treatment allocation (Group 1 or 2).
