Summary

This study looked at 124 ear, nose, and throat surgery patients who were at high risk for trouble urinating after surgery. Researchers compared two drugs used to reverse muscle relaxants: sugammadex and a combination of neostigmine and glycopyrrolate. The goal was to see which drug better prevents the need for a catheter to empty the bladder. Results suggest sugammadex may be a better choice for these patients.
