About this study
The purpose of this study is to correlate the objective electromyography (EMG)-derived data (TOFR, TOFC, PTC) with subjective (blinded) evaluation of responses using the TetraGraph.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥ 18 years old.
- Patients willing to participate and provide an informed consent.
- Patients undergoing an elective surgical procedure that requires use of NMBA agents administered intraoperatively.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with disorders, such as stroke, carpal tunnel syndrome, broken wrist with nerve damage, Dupuytren contracture, or any similar wrist injury.
- Patients with systemic neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis.
- Patients with significant organ dysfunction that can significantly affect pharmacokinetics of neuromuscular blocking and reversal agents; i.e., severe renal impairment or end-stage liver disease.
- Patients having surgery that would involve prepping the arm or leg into the sterile field.
