Healthy volunteers: no

Brief summary:
The present trial was set up to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2.0 mg.kg-1 sugammadex compared to neostigmine administered at reappearance of T2 in Chinese and Caucasian subjects for registration purposes in China.

Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: At reappearance of T2 after the last dose of rocuronium, 2.0 mg.kg-1 sugammadex was administered. arm 2: At reappearance of T2 after the last dose of rocuronium, 50 μg.kg-1 neostigmine (combined with 10-20 μg.kg-1 atropine, in a ratio ranging from 2.5:1 to 5:1) was administered. arm 3: At reappearance of T2 after the last dose of rocuronium, 2.0 mg.kg-1 sugammadex was administered. arm 4: At reappearance of T2 after the last dose of rocuronium, 50 μg.kg-1 neostigmine (combined with 10-20 μg.kg-1 atropine, in a ratio ranging from 2.5:1 to 5:1) was administered.

Interventions: intervention 1: Sugammadex intervention 2: neostigmine
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: After induction of anesthesia an intubation dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium was administered. Maintenance doses of 0.1-0.2 mg/kg rocuronium intravenous (IV) could be administered if necessary. At reappearance of T2 after the last administration of rocuronium, an IV single bolus dose of 2.0 mg/kg sugammadex was administered. intervention 2: After induction of anesthesia an intubation dose of 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium was administered. Maintenance doses of 0.1-0.2 mg/kg rocuronium IV could be administered if necessary. At reappearance of T2 after the last administration of rocuronium, an IV single bolus dose of 50 µg/kg neostigmine (combined with 10-20 μg.kg-1 atropine, in a ratio ranging from 2.5:1 to 5:1) was administered.
