How can we best use limited data and tailor ppx to individual patient risk/benefit in this heterogenous surgical population? 🦶🔪💉💊

Had a great time chatting with you guys about residual NMB and reversal strategies in the ICU! Thanks so much for the conversation and for highlighting this topic.

The great @sarajpharmd.bsky.social tells us how to use sugammadex in the ICU, why we should, and how many of our patients may have occult residual paralysis. #medsky #emimcc icuscenarios.com/episode-90-s...

Sugammadex in the ICU: let's talk about a *real* conundrum

Everyone always talks about the use of sugammadex for failed intubations (bad idea, lets move on)

But we overlook something we *should* be talking about: when we should use sugammadex for pre-extubation paralysis reversal... #1/4 #EMIMCC

I wish I could like this 1000 times 😂 so true. This yielded many good lessons in understanding pharmacomechanisms /toxidromes that are maybe getting lost nowadays. But certainly better for the patients that we have better options now haha
Totally. As can all of us OR pharmacists working with anesthesiologists in the pre-sug era;) 🤝
Though is a topic of active research by my group and hopefully others! Interested in the discussion here /end
but if deemed only minimal NMB likely, then this need not be accomplished with sug per se.

Guidance from current ASA guidelines is challenging to apply here and evidence very limited in ICU settings 3/
Ideal state may have been to assess NMB and reverse at end of case. Guessing block would have been greater and sug would be helpful at that point.

At this juncture though NMB is likely shallow or minimal though unable to assess precisely. Some reversal would likely be prudent, but 2/
Definitely agree with all this

To discuss the case question presented here- I think this is a good one for which there is likely divide and also lots of "not on the radar" as stated.

Firstly - if pt was only intubated for procedure then why did we wait 3 hrs to extubate? Sig HD instability? 1/
💯

The degree and duration of residual NMB after a single dose of roc is highly variable and probably alarmingly long in a fair amount of patients. when you start really digging into this it's all there but doesn't seem widely understood
Agree! Love your many prior reviews of this too. Some clips from my recent grand rounds on this topic-
