Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Sixty patients over the age of 65 with ASA I-III were divided into two groups according to their age (65-74 years old and greater than 74 years old). Patients received sugammadex (2.0 mg/kg intravenous) at the reappearance of the second twitch of the train of four (TOF) Watch as an agent for reversal of neuromuscular blockage at the end of surgery. Patients were extubated at the time of TOF equal 0.9. The patients’ TOF responses were evaluated with regards to postoperative residual curarization (PORC) in fifth minute and were followed up for one hour in the recovery room. Reintubation was applied for those patients who developed PORC and had SpO2 less than 90% despite being given 6L oxygen per min with a face mask

Statistical methods / analysis
Statistical analysis of the study was carried out using Statistical Package 21.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Armonk, NY, USA). Shapiro-Wilk test was used as normallity test. Continuous variables were compared using Mann-Whitney U test when the data were not normally distributed. Wilcoxon Signed rank test was used for dependent groups. Categorical variables were compared using Pearson’s chi-squared test and Fisher’s exact test. Correlations between variables were tested using Spearman correlation coefficient. Results were given as median (min-max) values. The p value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant and the values were expressed as ''median-minimum-maximum'' or as a number. The power calculation for the present study was calculated according to the T0.9 and an alpha level set at 0.05. The power was calculated as 0.64 according to recorded sample size.

Summary
Brief summary
Background: The importance of the characteristics of anesthesia and postoperative residual curarization (PORC) in the elderly population should be a growing concern in this century.
Aims: To investigate the effect of sugammadex on the duration of the recovery from neuromuscular blocking agents and postoperative residual curarization in the young elderly and middle-old elderly patients who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, followed by a train of four (TOF) Watch monitorization.
Methods: Sixty patients over the age of 65 with ASA I-III were divided into two groups according to their age (65-74 years old and older than 74 years ). Patients received sugammadex (2.0 mg/kg iv) at the reappearance of the second twitch of the TOF as an agent for reversal of neuromuscular blockage at the end of surgery. Patients were extubated at the time of TOF equal to 0.9 value. The patients’ TOF responses were evaluated with regards to PORC in at the fifth minute and were followed up for one hour in the recovery room. Reintubation was applied for those patients who developed PORC and had SpO2 less than 90% despite being given 6L oxygen per min with a face mask
Results: The onset time of neuromuscular blocking agent and time from T2 to achieve TOF ratio 90% or over were found to be longer in the middle-old elderly group than in the young elderly group. A statistically significant relationship was found between age and the duration of TOF ratio to reach 0.9 in the same direction. The PORC incidence and rate of reintubation were found to be 1.7% in all patients.
Conclusions: In our opinion, it is necessary to remember that the onset of the sugammadex effect is prolonged for patients who are aged older than 74 years compared to patients aged between 65-74 years.
