Deep muscle relaxation and diet for vNOTES hysterectomy
This study tests whether deep muscle relaxation and a special low-residue diet improve the surgical view during vNOTES hysterectomy for non-cancer conditions. It aims to make the procedure safer and easier for the surgeon.
Istanbul, KARTALAges 18 years+ - NCT06794450RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Recovery time with sugammadex vs. neostigmine after rocuronium
This study compares how quickly two different drugs (a half dose of sugammadex and neostigmine) reverse the effects of the muscle relaxant rocuronium after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. The goal is to find which drug helps you wake up and breathe normally faster.
Bandung, West JavaAges 18–59 - NCT06962007Recruiting
Jaw clenching after sugammadex for muscle relaxation reversal
This trial tests whether a drug called sugammadex, which reverses muscle relaxation from anesthesia, might cause jaw clenching in some people. The study will watch for this effect during routine surgery to better understand the risk.
Iksan, Jeonbuk-doAges 19–70 - NCT06679569Recruiting
Deep muscle relaxants for less pain after children's belly-button surgery
This study looks at whether giving a deep muscle relaxant during your child's belly-button surgery can reduce pain after the operation. It may help kids feel better and recover more comfortably.
Seoul, SeoulAges 2 months–7 years - NCT05344417Recruiting
Low-pressure gas during colon surgery to reduce post-surgery gut slowdown
This study compares a low-pressure way of filling the abdomen with gas during certain colon surgeries. It aims to see whether this helps the bowel “wake up” faster after surgery (less postoperative ileus).
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06334562Recruiting
Study of domestic sugammadex for reversing muscle relaxants after lung surgery
This study tests a domestic version of sugammadex sodium (a drug that reverses muscle relaxants) after lung surgery. It aims to see how well it works to help you wake up and recover from anesthesia.
Yiwu, ZhejiangAges 19–75 - NCT05993390Recruiting
Reversing muscle relaxants in ICU patients
This trial tests two medicines that help reverse the muscle-relaxing drugs given to patients on breathing tubes in the intensive care unit. The goal is to see which one works better and faster so patients can wake up sooner.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 19–90 - NCT06216002Recruiting
Residual paralysis after cancer surgery in frail patients
This trial checks how often muscle relaxant effects linger after gynecologic cancer surgery, especially in frail patients. It uses a nerve stimulator to measure muscle function after surgery.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT04524585Recruiting
Tested a muscle-relaxing treatment for severe low-oxygen breathing
This study tests whether partially relaxing the breathing-related muscles can help people with severe low oxygen while they are on a breathing machine. It may improve how well the lungs work by changing the way the muscles affect breathing.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07080528Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Measuring muscle relaxant duration in infants during skull surgery
This trial tests how long a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works in infants aged 3-12 months having skull surgery for a condition called craniosynostosis. The results may help doctors give safer and more effective doses.
Debrecen, Hajdú-BiharAges 3 months–1 year - NCT07706504Recruiting
Comparing two muscle relaxation monitors for long surgeries
This study compares two different monitors that measure how deeply your muscles are relaxed during long surgeries (over 3 hours) like laparoscopic, robotic, or chest surgeries. The monitors help the anesthesia team keep you safe and comfortable.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07485517Recruiting
Deep vs Moderate Muscle Block for Hysterectomy
This study compares two levels of muscle relaxation (deep versus moderate) during hysterectomy surgery to see which may be better for recovery. If you are a woman scheduled for a planned hysterectomy and are in generally good health, you might be eligible.
Menoufia, Eg.mnAges 18–60 - NCT07371377Recruiting
Testing a new device for muscle block monitoring during surgery
This trial tests a new device that measures how well muscle relaxants work during surgery. It may help anesthesiologists give the right amount of medication.
Bad HersfeldAges 18–65 - NCT05632107Recruiting
Testing two monitors that check muscle relaxation during surgery
This trial compares two devices that measure how well muscle relaxant medicine is working during planned surgery. It may help anesthesiologists choose monitoring that improves safety by confirming the muscles are relaxing as intended.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–90 - NCT06691204Recruiting
Comparing thumb and pinky for muscle monitoring during surgery
This trial compares two places on the hand—the thumb base and the pinky base—to see which is better for monitoring muscle relaxation during surgery. Participants will have their muscle response measured with a gentle electrical test (electromyography) while receiving a standard muscle relaxant (rocuronium).
Debrecen, Hajdú-BiharAges 18 years+ - NCT06469866Recruiting
Deep muscle relaxation and recovery after hysterectomy
This trial tests whether using a deeper level of muscle relaxation during laparoscopic hysterectomy helps patients recover better after surgery. It aims to find out if this approach can reduce pain and speed up return to normal activities.
Anqing, AnhuiAges 18–65 - NCT06409260Recruiting
Muscle monitoring in children 6 months to 2 years old
This study tests two devices that measure how well muscle relaxants work in young children during surgery. The goal is to see which device gives more accurate readings, helping doctors use the right dose of relaxant.

Ephedrine for faster muscle relaxant in elderly patients
This trial tests whether giving a small dose of ephedrine (a medicine that raises blood pressure) can make the muscle relaxant rocuronium work faster in older adults. It aims to help patients 80+ get a breathing tube placed more quickly during surgery.
CopenhagenAges 80 years+ - NCT05820802Recruiting
Studying immune cells in children during surgery
This study looks closely at immune cells in children while they are having surgery under general anesthesia using a specific muscle-relaxing medicine (rocuronium). It may help researchers understand how immune systems respond around the time of surgery and anesthesia.

Muscle relaxation levels in severe ARDS patients
This study is testing whether different levels of muscle relaxation (called neuromuscular blockade) during breathing support can improve lung function in people with serious ARDS. It might help doctors choose the best relaxation level for patients on a breathing machine.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuromuscular blockade?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 30 recruiting neuromuscular blockade studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a neuromuscular blockade trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a neuromuscular blockade trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
