Study summary

Myorelaxation is generally used as a part of general anesthesia for interventional rigid bronchoscopy. Succinylcholine is most often used because its short duration of action but rocuronium can be used since sugammadex permits a rapid and complete reversal of the neuromuscular block. The aim of ths study is to compare both agents.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Score of quality of the surgical procedure

    The quality of the surgical procedure is evaluated by the surgeon (composite score) who is unaware of the neuromuscular agent used (see Fuchs-Buder et al. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 2007;51(7):789-808)

    Time frame: one day

Secondary outcomes

  1. Score of quality of anesthesia

    The quality of anesthesia is evaluated by the anesthesist in charge on a scale 0-30 (0-10 for the induction ; 0-10 for maintenance; 0-10 for recovery)

    Time frame: one day

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 3, 2016, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
