Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With and Without Objective Neuromuscular Monitoring (Acceleromyography) in Cases Receiving a Non-depolarizing Neuromuscular Blocking Agent (NMBA) (Yes/no)in the period from induction of anaesthesia to termination of anaesthesia, usually 2 hours
PrimaryNumber of Participants With and Without Objective Neuromuscular Monitoring (Acceleromyography) in Cases Receiving a Depolarizing NMBA (Succinylcholine) (Yes/no)in the period from induction of anaesthesia to termination of anaesthesia, usually 2 hours
SecondaryLast Recorded Train-of-four (TOF) Ratio Before Tracheal Extubation or Removal of Supraglottic Airway Device in Patients Receiving a Non-depolarizing NMBAin the period from induction of anaesthesia to termination of anaesthesia, usually 2 hoursThe train-of-four (TOF) ratio is the ratio between the last and first measurements after four stimuli of the ulnar nerve at 2 Hz. The ratio should be at least 0.9 before tracheal extubation.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With and Without Administration of Sugammadex in Cases Receiving a Non-depolarizing NMBA (Yes/no)in the period from induction of anaesthesia to discharge from the post-anaesthesia care unit, usually 5 hours
SecondaryNumber of Participants With and Without Administration of Neostigmine in Cases Receiving a Non-depolarizing NMBA (Yes/no)in the period from induction of anaesthesia to discharge from the post-anaesthesia care unit, usually 5 hours

Time in Minutes From Tracheal Extubation or Removal of Supraglottic Airway Device to Discharge From Post-anaesthesia Care Unit in Cases Involving a Non-depolarizing NMBA With and Without Neuromuscular Monitoring, Respectively
in the period from induction of anaesthesia to discharge from the post-anaesthesia care unit, usually 180 minutes
SecondaryNumber of Participants With and Without Mild Oxygen Desaturation (<90%, But >80%) in Cases Receiving a Non-depolarizing NMBAin the period between tracheal extubation or removal of supraglottic airway device and discharge from post-anaesthesia care unit, assessed up to 24 hours
SecondaryNumber of Participants With and Without Severe Oxygen Desaturation (<80%) in Cases Receiving a Non-depolarizing NMBAin the period between tracheal extubation or removal of supraglottic airway device and discharge from post-anaesthesia care unit, assessed up to 24 hours
