Measure
Rocuronium Infusion
Patients who are scheduled for elective, urgent or emergent surgery requiring the continuous infusion of the neuromuscular blocking agent, rocuronium. TetraGraph: etraGraph is a unique, EMG-based portable device for quantitative (objective) monitoring of neuromuscular function. It is a precise and easy to use tool for monitoring depth of block, ensuring adequate recovery of muscle function, and aiding the clinician to reduce the incidence of residual block.
