Clinical Trial Summary

Comparing during anesthesia in the same patient 2 neuromuscular monitors on the same arm.


Clinical Trial Description

NMT (neuromuscular transmission) depth can be measured at the same arm with two different methods during clinical practice.

the first (TOF Watch) measures the musculus adductor pollicis acceleration while the second method (TOF Cuff Monitor) uses a blood pressure cuff to measure the pressure changes induced by the upper arm muscles.

During general anesthesia when NMB (neuromuscular block) is required both methods are used. Every 5 minutes, if clinical required, the NMB is monitored by TOF-PTC. If the measurement of TOF is zero the monitor continues by measuring PTC ( the system will measure TOF followed by PTC if TOF is zero) TOF-PTC is recorded and later compared for identity or systematic difference in one or the other direction.

The measured answer can be TOF 4 (4 answers) with a ratio between answer 1 and 4 expressed and a percentage, TOF 3 (3 answers), TOF 2, TOF 1, TOF 0 + PTC 20, TOF 0 + PTC 19, up to TOF 0 + PTC 0 ;
