Imagem funcional da respiração após aceleração da recuperação do bloqueio neuromuscular com neostigmina ou sugamadex em ratos anestesiados: estudo piloto controlado e randomizado

This pilot study in rats demonstrated an increased relative contribution of chest wall expansion after neostigmine compared with sugammadex or saline. This smaller relative contribution of diaphragm movement may be explained by a neostigmine‐induced decrease in phrenic nerve activity or by remaining occupied acetylcholine receptors after neostigmine.
