Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Stress reactions caused by surgical stimuli can cause sympathetic nervous system activation and increased stress hormones, such as catecholamines, inflammatory cytokines, and pituitary hormones, and insulin resistance. In addition, increased catecholamine levels may exacerbate postoperative outcomes, especially delayed wound recovery, increased cardiovascular and respiratory complications, and immunosuppression. In particular, it is important to reduce the stress response for cancer patients during surgery because they are already immunocompromised status and more vulnerable to perioperative stressful situation. However, there are insufficient results on the benefits of deep neuromuscular block in these patients, although some have reported a reduction of postoperative pain and fewer complications in the deep neuromuscular block compared with moderate neuromuscular block. Therefore, the investigators aim to investigate the difference in the stress response of patients who received conventional moderate neuromuscular block or deep neuromuscular block in robot-assisted gastric cancer surgery.

Study Groups

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

Deep neuromuscular block group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Deep neuromuscular block with 'rocunium®'

Intervention Type DRUG

Rocuronium will be maintained in a arm 1) deep neuromuscular block group or arm 2) moderate neuromuscular block group (control group) according to the assignment. The degree of muscle relaxation is determined by 1 to 2 for post-tetanic count (PTC) in deep neuromuscular group.

Moderate neuromuscular block group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Moderate neuromuscular block with 'rocunium®'

Intervention Type DRUG

Rocuronium will be maintained in a arm 1) deep neuromuscular block group or arm 2) moderate neuromuscular block group (control group) according to the assignment. The degree of muscle relaxation is determined by 1 to 2 for train-of-four (TOF) in moderate neuromuscular group.
