A Study to Evaluate Cardiac Output and Recovery Time

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cardiac output measurements during patient's recovery from anesthesia and determine if there is correlation between the cardiac output measurement and residual neuromuscular blockade

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.

Patients willing to participate and provide an informed consent.
Patients undergoing an elective surgical procedure requiring administration of rocuronium, and the use of a pulmonary artery catheter intraoperatively.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with unilateral disorders, such as stroke, carpal tunnel syndrome, broken wrist with nerve damage, Dupuytren contracture.
Patients with systemic neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis.
