Muscle relaxants represent an important part of general anesthesia in adult and pediatric patients. Their role is to facilitate intubation and enable some surgical interventions. At our workplace, monitoring of the depth of neuromuscular blockade is a standard procedure in accordance with the 2017 recommendation of ÄŒSARIM entitled "Principles of Patient Safety in Anesthesiology" \[1,2\]. At present, we mainly use rocuronium. One of the advantages of this non-depolarizing steroidal muscle relaxant with a rapid onset and intermediate duration of action is the existence of the specific antagonist sugammadex.
