This meta-analysis showed that use of dexamethasone in the perioperative period neither delayed nor facilitated the reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex in patients undergoing elective surgery with general anesthesia. However, given that the results showed high heterogeneity, further randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.
