SUGAMMADEX USE IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS

How does your hospital manage the use of sugammadex for patients in emergency situations when intubation and ventilations are unexpectedly difficult or impossible, requiring sugammadex administration in 16 mg/kg for NMBA reversal?

Where is the total reversal dose kept? Crash cart, anesthesia cart, or kit?

Thanks
