Summary

The objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of a hydraulically coupled twitch monitor compared to the EMG twitch monitor in current use to measure the extent of neuromuscular blockade in patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Conditions

  • Neuromuscular Blockade

Interventions

DEVICE

Hydraulic Monitoring Device

The hydraulic monitoring device externally measures the pressure associated with thumb strength applied to the device to determine the depth of neuromuscular blockade during general anesthesia. This will be compared to measurements using a current monitoring device in the same patient.

DEVICE

Standard EMG Monitoring Device

Standard and in current usage, the electromyographic monitoring (EMG) device externally measures the action potential of the muscles of the thumb to determine the depth of neuromuscular blockade during general anesthesia. This will be used as the clinical monitoring device and as a comparator.
