Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • surgeon evaluation of working surgical conditions

    the surgeon will score the surgical working conditions at 15 min intervals, according to a 5-point ordinal scale

    intraoperative

Interventions

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a restrictive procedure which consists in creating a narrow tube-like stomach, designed to decrease appetite by reducing the ability of the stomach to distend.

You may not qualify if:

  • a physical status \>3 (ASA),
  • a difficult tracheal intubation,
  • a known or suspected disorder affecting NMB,
  • a renal, pulmonary, cardiac, and/or hepatic dysfunction,
  • malignant hyperthermia,
  • pregnancy, breastfeeding,
  • allergy or contraindication to narcotics, rocuronium, neostigmine, or other medications used during anesthesia
  • patients with sleep apnea syndrome will also be excluded.
