Clarifications on Technologies to Optimize Care of Severe COVID-19 Patients	2020-07-14		.txt	text/plain	742	47	52	To the Editor W e read with great interest the article by Dr Rubulotta et al 1 and we congratulate the authors for their timely information with regard to strategies and technologies designed to optimize care of patients with severe coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The problem with this statement is that the authors argue that if intubation fails, then neuromuscular block can be reversed quickly by administering sugammadex 16 mg/kg. The authors also suggest, in the event of an anaphylactic reaction to rocuronium, that sugammadex may abort or reverse this process. 2 It also has been shown that subjective (tactile) evaluation of the TOF count is vastly different based on the muscle assessed: qualitative (subjective) evaluation of TOF responses at the eye muscles, for instance, resulted in a >5-fold higher risk of residual paralysis than those patients in whom the hand (adductor pollicis) muscles were assessed subjectively.	./cache/cord-343904-fjtt3f2e.txt	./txt/cord-343904-fjtt3f2e.txt
