Summary
The purpose of this study is to:
1. Perform a retrospective analysis on data contained in the UCLA Perioperative Data
Warehouse on the incidence of respiratory dysfunction in the post-operative care unit
(PACU) before and after the introduction of sugammadex into clinical practice.
2. Develop and implement a clinical best practice pathway designed to prevent postoperative
respiratory complications in higher risk patients (such as those with OSA or preexisting
respiratory disease) using education and clinical decision support in patients.
