"I work with anesthesiologists and certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) in the OR when monitoring a patient's nervous system. Surgeons will often ask for paralytic (usually long-lasting NMB is used) for exposure. When the surgeon begins decompression around nerve roots of the spine or wants to test pedicle screws, it is important for technologists in my field to have the paralytic traces in the body almost gone. We have a criteria established by experts in our field that allows us to give the surgeon accurate information based on the manipulation that is being done to the patient. Neostigmine, in my experience, is good to use if time is not critical. If time is critical, say the patient has one twitch response from a train of four and the surgeon wants to test a pedicle screw within a few minutes, sugammadex works best. The technologist can get 4/4 twitches quickly and the surgeon can test the screws without any real delay."

"The side effects of this devastating drug are way too much. I don't believe this drug has any positive effects on any parts of the body."
