Study Summary

This trial is testing how long it takes for the medication used to relax muscles during surgery to wear off, and how this relates to heart function.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are having elective surgery needing muscle relaxation with rocuronium and a heart monitor (pulmonary artery catheter). They must be willing to consent. It's not for those with severe kidney or liver disease, surgeries involving an arm or leg in the sterile field, or people with conditions like stroke, nerve damage, Dupuytren contracture, or myasthenia gravis.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing TetraGraph to see how quickly patients recover from muscle relaxants used during surgery and how this recovery time relates to their heart function. The goal is to better understand the link between cardiac output and emergence from anesthesia.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of TetraGraph monitoring aren't detailed here, typically such devices have minimal risks associated with them. However, potential side effects may relate more to the reversal of neuromuscular blockade rather than the device itself.
