Electromyography and Acceleromyography in Ventilated ICU Patients

NCT03778749 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

Last updated 2019-05-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In intensive care unit (ICU) patients who are mechanically ventilated for a longer period of time, there might be a difference in accuracy and performance of neuromuscular transmission monitoring \[as measured by the train-of-four (TOF)%\] due to a pre-existing TOF fade, correlated to some form of acquired muscle weakness. The investigators therefore propose to search for and compare the optimal monitoring techniques (acceleromyography vs. electromyography) and the optimal muscle monitoring site (peripheral-adductor pollicis vs. central-corrugator supercilii) in ICU patients who require prolonged mechanical ventilation.
