A Randomized Controlled Trial to Compare the Effectiveness of Deep vs. Moderate Neuromuscular Blockade in Reducing Postoperative Pain and Intra-Abdominal Insufflation Pressure During Minimally Invasive Robotic Prostatectomy
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Rocuronium 0.3mg/kg/hr and Rocuronium 1.5mg/kg/hr for Prostate Cancer. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 139 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in intra-abdominal pressure which surgeons use during surgery and post-surgery pain in men who undergo robotic prostate surgery with deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB), compared with moderate NMB.

Timeline
Interventions
The Moderate NMB group (Control ) will have rocuronium infusion titrated to moderate paralysis defined as TOF of 1-2 (infusion start rate 0.003 mg/kg/min or 0.18mg/kg/hr).
The Deep NMB group (Intervention) will have rocuronium infusion titrated to deep paralysis defined as PTC of 1-2 (infusion start rate 0.006mg/kg/min or 0.35mg/kg/hr).
