Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Participants 18 to 64 years old

Participants to receive an intravenous (IV) single bolus dose of 0.6 mg.kg-1 rocuronium. If further neuromuscular block was required after endotracheal intubation, maintenance dose(s) of 0.15 mg.kg-1 rocuronium were to be administered. After the intubation dose or the last maintenance dose of rocuronium, participants were to be reversed at reappearance of second twitch (T2) with an intravenous single bolus dose of 2.0 mg.kg-1 of sugammadex.
