The purpose of this research is to use 2 devices to compare the difference in the amount of time it takes for each device to register complete muscle relaxation after the muscle relaxing medication is given. The comparison will be made by using electromyographic (EMG), such as TetraGraph, and acceloromyographic (AMG), such as TOFScan, monitors at the time of insertion of breathing tube.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
100
Use of either TetraGraph or TOFScan to measure the neuromuscular blockade
Mayo Clinic in Florida
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
Time difference
Compare time difference from neuromuscular blockade agent administration to neuromuscular blockade onset
Time frame: During the initiation of anesthesia period
Intubating conditions
Assess intubating conditions once a complete neuromuscular blockade has been achieved either by TetraGraph or TOFScan measurements
Time frame: During the initiation of anesthesia period
