About this trial

This is an interventional other trial for Residual Neuromuscular Blockade focused on measuring Neuromuscular Blockade, Tetragraph, AMG, EMG

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age > or = 18 years old
  • Patients willing to participate and provide an informed consent
  • Patients undergoing an elective laparoscopic or robotic surgical procedure that requires use of NMBA agents administered intraoperatively.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with disorders, such as stroke, carpal tunnel syndrome, broken wrist with nerve damage, Dupuytren contracture, or any similar wrist injury.
  • Patients with systemic neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis
  • Patients with significant organ dysfunction that can significantly affect pharmacokinetics of neuromuscular blocking and reversal agents, i.e., severe renal impairment or end-stage liver disease.
  • Patients having surgery that would involve prepping the arm or leg into the sterile field

Sites / Locations

  • Mayo Clinic in Florida
  • Université de Lorraine, CHU de Brabois
  • University of Debrecen

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Researchers are comparing the ease of use and repeatability of the force vs electrical activity produced by a muscle after it has undergone nerve stimulation during a surgical procedure in which the patients' arm movement is restricted (placed under surgical drapes) in laparoscopic or robotic procedures.

Intervention Type
Device
Intervention Name(s)
Tetragraph
Intervention Description
FDA approved neuromuscular transmission monitor capable of measuring the depth of neuromuscular block in anesthetized patients who received neuromuscular blocking agents. TetraGraph uses EMG to measure the muscle action potentials that are generated in response to electrical neurostimulation via skin electrodes.
Intervention Type
Device
Intervention Name(s)
ToFscan
Intervention Description
ToFscan is a nerve stimulator module used for the measurement of neuromuscular transmission via accelerometry. ToFscan was developed by Drager Technologies, Canada, and it uses a three-dimensional piezoelectric sensor that attaches to the thumb via a hand adapter to measure acceleration in multiple planes (Murphy et al, 2018). Following simultaneous ulnar nerve stimulation on each arm, the response of the adductor pollicis will be measured
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Accuracy of Values Between Tetragraph and ToFscan
Description
The number of subject's who's residual neuromuscular blockage units are the same on both the TetraGraph and the ToFscan
Time Frame
Up to 1 hour postoperatively
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Incidence of Residual Neuromuscular Blockade
Description
Number of patients with train of four ratio < 0.9 after administration of reversal agent.
Time Frame
Up to 1 hour postoperatively
