Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group "D" for Deep muscle relaxation, high doses rocuroniumExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
A bolus of 0.4 mg/kg of IV rocuronium will be given at the induction of the anesthesia. Bolus of rocuronium 0.1 mg/kg IV will be given during surgery to keep the TOF 0/4 and a PTC ≤ 2 (parameters measured every 10 minutes).
Group II: Group "M" for Moderate muscle relaxation, low doses rocuroniumActive Control1 Intervention
A bolus of 0.4 mg/kg of IV rocuronium will be given at the induction of the anesthesia. Rocuronium IV bolus guided by TOF that must remain between 1-3 / 4 during surgery.
