Postoperative Urinary Retention After Reversal of Neuromuscular Block by Neostigmine Versus Sugammadex

This study is intended to be a single-site, prospective, randomized, controlled study that intends to enroll a total of 230 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Parkland Hospital. Patients will be randomized to receive either neostigmine or sugammadex for reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade. A standardized anesthetic protocol that is usual and customary for the type of operation the patient is having will be provided to the anesthesia teams of enrolled subjects. The remainder of the anesthetic care of the subject will not deviate from the standard of care. To account for protocol deviations and patient dropout, up to 250 randomization envelopes will be made and enrollment will continue until there are 230 completed enrollments.
