Study Details

Brief summary:

Gold standard for neuromuscular blockade evaluation is accelerometry in three dimensions at the thumb. There are many times that measurement at the hand can be falsely under-estimated intraoperatively secondary to constriction of the upper extremities. We believe that installing the same accelerometer at the first toe will give us similar readings for both neuromuscular blockade and recovery from rocuronium administration. This study focuses on agreement values between two accelerometers installed on the hand and at on the foot.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

Observation and control

Two accelerometers will be applied on each patient; observation (foot) and control (hand, also the gold standard). Agreement values will be compared between these two monitors.

Interventions

TOFscan foot

TOFscan will be applied on the foot and recovery from neuromuscular blockade will be observed over time. These will be compared with the control (TOFscan at the hand) on the same patient (gold standard monitor).

Primary outcome measure

  • Time of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) recovery [ Time Frame: 60 minutes ]
