Abstract
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 neostigmineâinduced decrease in phrenic nerve activity or by remaining occupied acetylcholine receptors after neostigmine.
