Administration of cholinesterase inhibitors in combination with anticholinergic drugs for reversal of neuromuscular blocks may precipitate delirium through impairment of central cholinergic transmission, which could be avoided by using sugammadex. Therefore, we tested the primary hypothesis that postoperative delirium is less common when neuromuscular block is reversed with sugammadex than with neostigmine combined with glycopyrrolate or atropine.
