Methods |
Study design: prospective, randomized clinical study Sample size calculation: no information available |
|
Participants |
Number of randomized participants: 42 Inclusion criteria: adults undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy Exclusion criteria: no information available |
|
Interventions |
Anaesthesia: no information available NMBA: single intubating dose: rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg; maintenance dose: rocuronium 0.15 to 3 mg/kg Comparison: sugammadex 2 mg/kg (n = 21) vs neostigmine 40 µg/kg + atropine group 15 µg/kg (n = 21) Administration time of sugammadex or neostigmine: no information available |
|
Outcomes | Gastric emptying evaluated by paracetamol absorption test. Paracetamol absorption was assessed from the plasma paracetamol concentration (PPC) | |
Notes |
Publication type: meeting abstract Country: Croatia Conversions: none Authors’ conclusions: Although study results show a tendency toward faster gastric emptying in the sugammadex group, this difference is not significant in most, possibly owing to small sample size Contact: first author Alan Sustic contacted by email: alan.sustic@uniri.hr on 24.05.2016; replied 25.05 * Indicates unpublished data |

Random sequence generation (selection bias) | Low risk | Computer randomization * |
Allocation concealment (selection bias) | Unclear risk | Unable to assess owing to insufficient information |
Blinding of participants (performance bias) | High risk | Participants not blinded * |
Blinding of personnel (performance bias) | High risk | Participants not blinded * |
Blinding of primary outcome assessment (detection bias) | Low risk | Not relevant as TOF measurement not performed in this study |
Blinding of safety assessment (detection bias) | Low risk | Outcomes assessor was blinded * |
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias) All outcomes | Unclear risk | Unable to assess owing to insufficient information |
Selective reporting (reporting bias) | Low risk | Study protocol not available, but published meeting abstract clearly includes all expected outcomes |
