Tiny study probes link between heart output and anesthesia reversal
NCT ID NCT04619225
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether the heart's pumping ability affects how quickly patients recover from muscle relaxants given during surgery. Researchers measured heart output and recovery time after using sugammadex to reverse the relaxant rocuronium. Only 7 people took part before the study was stopped early, so the findings are very limited.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
sugammadex
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors predict recovery time from muscle relaxants based on heart function, potentially improving anesthesia care.
What could go wrong
This was a very small, terminated study with only 7 participants. Results may not be reliable or apply to broader populations.
