The Effect of Deep Versus Moderate Muscle Relaxants in Men During and After Robotic Surgery for Prostate Cancer
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
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
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.
