Objective:
To determine the incidence of postoperative urinary retention after reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade by neostigmine versus sugammadex in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Hypothesis:
Subjects who are reversed with sugammadex will have less postoperative urinary retention compared to subjects who are reversed with neostigmine.
