NCT ID: NCT02989272 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Effect of Pre-treatment With Magnesium Sulfate on the Duration of Deep Neuromuscular Blockade With Rocuronium

Start date: December 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

It is a prospective, comparative, randomized, double-blind clinical trial whose hypothesis is that pre-treatment with magnesium sulfate, due to its action at the neuromuscular junction,potentiate the duration of deep neuromuscular block following rocuronium curarization in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Magnesium sulphate has gained prominence as an adjuvant drug in anesthesia. Its use is associated with potentiation of neuromuscular blockade among other functions. The deep neuromuscular block is defined as the one obtained by the absence of response to the sequence of four Stimuli and the presence of one or more simple stimuli in post-tetanic counts . There is no literature description of the role of magnesium sulphate in Duration of the deep neuromuscular block obtained after the muscle relaxation of patients with rocuronium This study is justified because extending the clinical duration of neuromuscular blockers may translate into gains for surgeries that require deep and long-lasting muscle relaxation as in laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. This block allows lower inflation pressures of the pneumoperitoneum to be obtained, as a result, there is a lower inflammatory and cardiorespiratory repercussion for the patient

NCT ID: NCT02984839 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Incidence of Residual Neuromuscular Blockade in Intra-abdominal Surgery: A Prospective, Observational Study

Start date: November 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this prospective, observational study is to determine the incidence of post-operative residual neuromuscular blockade (PRNB) in patients undergoing intra-abdominal procedures compared to patients undergoing other noncardiac/non intra-thoracic procedures that also require non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) administration. As intra-abdominal surgeries are independently associated with post-operative pulmonary complications (PPCs), it is important to highlight other factors, such as PRNB, that could contribute to these complications.Although it has been shown that the risk of adverse respiratory events can be reduced by intra-operative quantitative neuromuscular monitoring, such monitoring is not in widespread use.This study will incorporate quantitative monitoring in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) setting by using the Stimpod NMS450® in an effort to show a disparity in the incidence of residual paralysis between these two patient populations and to emphasize the need to implement more accurate neuromuscular monitoring, especially for those that are already at increased risk for respiratory complications.

NCT ID: NCT02932254 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Magnesium Sulfate Effect Following the Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade Induced by Rocuronium With Sugammadex

Start date: October 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate the treatment effect of magnesium sulfate on the T4 / T1 ratio after reversal with sugammadex deep or moderate neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium.

NCT ID: NCT02930629 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Residual Block in Postoperative Anaesthetic Care Unit

Start date: October 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence of residual block in patients arriving in the Post Anaesthetic Care Unit (PACU) following surgery, and in those who have received neuromuscular blocking drugs (muscle relaxants). Residual block (decreased motor function) due to residual levels of muscle relaxants is associated with increased morbidity.

NCT ID: NCT02925143 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Improving Neuromuscular Monitoring and Reducing Residual Neuromuscular Blockade Via E-learning

INVERT
Start date: November 21, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To assess the impact of an e-learning course in neuromuscular monitoring on the frequency of application of objective neuromuscular monitoring for assessment of depth of neuromuscular blockade in general anaesthesia and secondarily on the incidence of residual neuromuscular blockade after anesthesia. We will collect data prospectively from 6 Danish anaesthesia departments from the time of intervention, using data from the Anaesthesia Information Management System (AIMS). Baseline data is obtained from another study based on the same data extraction procedure (NCT02914119).

NCT ID: NCT02914119 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Use of Neuromuscular Blocking Agents and Neuromuscular Monitoring in 7 Danish Teaching Hospitals

Start date: October 1, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Aim: To explore - the frequency of use of objective neuromuscular monitoring for assessment of depth of neuromuscular blockade in general anaesthesia - the incidence of residual neuromuscular blockade, and - the timing of reversal of the neuromuscular blockade at the end of anaesthesia. We will collect data from 7 Danish anaesthesia departments, using data from the Anaesthesia Information Management System (AIMS).

NCT ID: NCT02912039 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Electromyographic Assessment of the TetraGraph in Normal Volunteers

Start date: September 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

There is an urgent need for an easy-to-use and accurate quantitative neuromuscular monitor in the clinical setting. The aim of this clinical investigation is to examine a prototype of a quantitative monitoring instrument that will meet most, if not all, of the clinical requirements.

NCT ID: NCT02892045 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Mindray Neuromuscular Transmission Transducer

NMT1
Start date: September 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A new NMT module from Mindray (Mindray Co. Shenzhen, People's Republic of China.) claims to measure 3 directional accelerography. The aim of the study is to compare the neuromuscular block of rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg (twice the 95% effective dose, ED95) monitored by the NMT versus that monitored by the Relaxometer Mechanomyograph on the other hand in Group 1, and versus the TOF-Watch on the other hand in Group 2 to clinically evaluate the new system for its diagnostic accuracy.

NCT ID: NCT02861131 Completed - Clinical trials for Postoperative Complications

The Effect of Sugammadex Versus Neostigmine on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications

Start date: January 24, 2017
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Substantial respiratory morbidity has been associated with postoperative residual paralysis, which is fairly common after general anesthesia involving a neuromuscular blocking agent. Common practice in United States is to reverse neuromuscular blockade with neostigmine at the end of surgery. A new drug with evidence of more complete neuromuscular reversal has been developed, sugammadex. The objective of this study is to determine if a strategy of rocuronium neuromuscular reversal with sugammadex will reduce the proportion of subjects with any postoperative pulmonary complication, compared to neostigmine.

Start date: August 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Sugammadex in rapidly reversing deep neuromuscular blockaded (induced by rocuronium)
