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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 6 months and 2 years old.
- Your child is scheduled for a planned surgery that uses general anesthesia and a muscle relaxant called rocuronium.
- Your child must be in good to moderate health (ASA I to III).
- Your child cannot have an allergy to rocuronium.
- Your child cannot have a muscle or nerve disease that could affect the monitoring.
- Your child cannot need a rapid-sequence induction or be placed on their stomach for surgery.

This study compares two ways to monitor muscle relaxation during surgery. It looks at how well a nerve monitor on the arm works versus one on the wrist, to help doctors give the right amount of muscle relaxant medicine.
This trial uses a device called TetraGraph to measure how quickly a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works and wears off during surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for patients who need this medicine.
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.
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.
This study tests two different devices that measure how well your muscles recover from anesthesia during gallbladder removal surgery. It aims to find which device is more accurate in guiding the anesthesiologist to ensure your safe recovery.
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.
